A federal appeals court has ordered the Trump administration to facilitate the return of Jordin Alexander Melgar-Salmeron, a Salvadoran man who was deported to El Salvador on May 7, just 30 minutes after the court issued a ruling blocking his removal. This deportation was deemed an "inadvertent" and "improper" government error, occurring in violation of a court order. The 2nd Circuit Court referenced a precedent involving a Maryland man deported to a Salvadoran prison, reinforcing the mandate to return Melgar-Salmeron to the United States. This marks the fourth time since March that federal courts have required the Trump administration to reverse deportations of immigrants mistakenly removed from the country. The court also ordered the administration to explain how it is complying with these judicial directives, signaling an attempt to address what appears to be a pattern of government disregard for court orders.
