A federal judge declined Tuesday to hold the Trump administration in contempt for failing to return a Maryland father wrongly deported to El Salvador but admonished government attorneys for failing to provide evidence of what they were doing to bring him home.
U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis of Maryland ordered the U.S. to show what steps it is taking to comply with a court ruling to release Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who was expelled from the U.S. in March.
Xinis said Abrego Garcia's attorneys would be allowed to take the sworn testimony of government officials in the case and that the process could take two weeks.
"There will be no tolerance for gamesmanship and grandstanding," she said.
