ICE barred from re-detaining refugee

SAN JOSE, Calif. — A Honduran man’s motion for an ex parte temporary restraining order was granted by a California federal court, which ordered the government not to re-arrest and re-detain him on grounds related to his immigration status prior to a future court order. The man fled Honduras out of fear of being killed by MS-13 gang members and was granted a withholding of removal in 2019, and reasonably fears that he will be removed to a third country if he complies with an ICE order to report to its offices.
