Immigration judge denies Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s bid for asylum, but he has 30 days to appeal 6 mins ago A U.S. immigration judge has denied a bid for asylum from Kilmar Abrego Garcia. The judge in Baltimore on Wednesday denied an application to reopen Abrego Garcia's asylum case, but he has 30 days to appeal. The Salvadoran national has an American wife and children and has lived in Maryland for years, but he originally immigrated to the U.S. illegally as a teenager. An immigration judge in 2019 ruled that he could not be deported to El Salvador because he faced danger from a gang that targeted his family. When he was mistakenly deported there in March, his case became a rallying point for those who opposed President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.
