Donald Trump
After listening to an “Oopsie… too late”, James E. Bomberg threatened with prosecution for Trump to have “stained” court order. “The Constitution does not tolerate voluntary disobedience to court orders.”
A federal judge said Wednesday that he found probable cause to hold Donald Trump’s government accountable for criminal disrespect By ignoring the court orders and returning a plane with.
The district judge James E. Boasberg He warned that he could take the matter to a state of prosecution if the government does not “purge” its disrespect through voluntary obedience to its order.
Trump’s government can comply with the order to return to US jurisdiction those sent to an arrest in El Salvador, in violation of his order, so that “they can exercise their right to contest their extradition,” GOVERG said. If the Justice Department refuses to advance with the case, Bomberg said it will point out a prosecutor to move on with the matter.
“The Constitution does not tolerate voluntary disobedience to court orders-especially by leaders who have sworn to comply with it ”wrote the judge.
This episode represents a climb in the battle between the executive and judicial branches of political power centered on the presidential powers to advance with their priorities.
The Republican President has claimed the dismissal of the judge and the Justice Department has been accused of exceeding his authority.
“Oopsie … too late.” Judge did not allow flight to the arrest with bad fame
Boomberg, who was appointed by Democratic President Barack Obama, He ordered no one to be deported on the Law of Foreign Enemies, dated 1798. Nevertheless, Trump invoked this law from the time of war to order the deportation of what he designated by invasion by the elements of a Venezuelan gang.
When Bomberg was informed that the airplanes were already in the air, on their way to El Salvador, who agreed to welcome the deported immigrants in a prison with bad famethe judge said they had to return to the US.
But hours later, El Salvador President Nayib Bukele announced that the deported ones had already arrived in his country. On social networks, he wrote “Oopsie… too late” over an article with the order of Bomberg.
O Trump’s government has argued that it has not violated any orderHe said that the judge did not include the order of return in his written form and that the planes had already left the US when the order was released.
Earlier this month, the Supreme Court canceled the temporary order of Bomberg, to block deportations under the Law of Foreign Enemies, but added that immigrants should be given the possibility of contesting the deportation order before being deported.
Bomberg wrote that even if the Supreme has considered that his order “suffered from a legal defect”, this “does not apologize to the violation of the government.”
He also emphasized that “the conduct of the government reveals a desire to overcome the equitable scope of the judicial (power).”
And now?
Bomberg gave Trump administration until next Wednesday to decide whether to “claim” the custody of Venezuelans so that they can contest their detention, potentially still from the prison of El Salvador.
If Trump refuses, it promises to identify these responsible employees and forward them to the process.
