Judge Dena Coggins said in her Monday ruling the administration must return Maria de Jesus Estrada Juarez, a Daca recipient, to the US within seven days. She was arrested on 18 February in Sacramento during her green-card appointment, and was deported to Mexico the next day. The department said Estrada Juarez “received full due process and was issued a final order of removal from an immigration judge in 1998. She and her 22-year-old daughter attended the green-card appointment, where immigration agents arrested Estrada Juarez in front of her daughter, according to the magazine. Estrada Juarez filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration earlier this month, arguing that she “could not legally be removed from the United States while in Daca status”.
