Another wrongly deported man must be returned from El Salvador, court says

Context: Jordin Alexander Melgar-Salmeron, an undocumented immigrant from El Salvador, was in immigration detention since 2022, pending deportation proceedings.

• About 30 minutes after a federal appeals court barred his removal on May 7, the Trump administration deported the 31 year old, according to court documents.
• The government blamed "a confluence of administrative errors."

Driving the news: Citing the Supreme Court decision ordering the government to "facilitate" the return of wrongful deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the court said Melgar-Salmeron should be returned "as soon as possible" to ensure his case is handled properly.

• Abrego Garcia was recently returned to the U.S., where he now faces smuggling charges. He pleaded not guilty.

What we're watching: Judges also ruled that the Trump administration improperly deported two other men under similar circumstances, Politico reported.

• They ordered the administration to return the deportees to the U.S., where they can receive due process.

Zoom in: Melgar-Salmeron has been living and working in Virginia for the past five years, according to a court filing.

• He was charged with the unlawful possession of a firearm that he found but never used.
