Martinez-Andino Returns After Deportation Ruling | Durham News

A Honduran immigrant deported earlier this year has returned to the U.S. after a federal judge ruled he was denied due process during his initial removal — a decision that’s now forcing the government to bring him back for a critical bond hearing. Though not yet back where his case began, his return marks a major legal victory. The judge, appointed by Obama, condemned the rushed deportation process that left him with little time to consult his lawyer. Meanwhile, DHS insists he entered illegally and denies claims of denied counsel, though his legal team argues he’s protected under a Special Immigrant Juvenile visa — a status he applied for as an unaccompanied minor in 2020, and which led to dismissal of his removal case last year.
