Roberts temporarily halts deadline for Trump admin to return mistakenly deported man

Chief Justice John Roberts temporarily halted a judge’s midnight deadline for the Trump administration to return to the country a man mistakenly deported to El Salvador. 

Roberts agreed to hold the deadline until the high court can resolve the Trump administration’s emergency request to lift the judge’s order.

The order does not address the underlying merits of the dispute and is not necessarily an indication of how the court will rule.
