According to court documents, the 20-year-old migrant, known as Cristian, arrived in the U.S. as an unaccompanied minor and sought asylum in 2019.

U.S. District Judge Stephanie Gallagher ruled that Cristian is entitled to due process under a settlement that resulted from a class-action lawsuit. The settlement allowed certain migrants to remain in the U.S. while their asylum applications were processed.

"This Court further orders that facilitating Cristian’s return includes, but is not limited to, Defendants making a good faith request to the government of El Salvador to release Cristian to U.S. custody for transport back to the United States to await the adjudication of his asylum application," Gallagher said.

Gallagher was appointed to be a District Court Judge by President Trump in 2019 and confirmed by the Senate.

How’s that enforcement coming along there, District Court?

His name is Christian. I wonder if his last name is Jesus or something. They don't mention it in this article.

Well if his last name was Jesus he must be an immigrant. Send him back to Mexico!

It's just empty threats until they actually enforce it. It's time for the judges to start deputizing people like it's the Wild West.
