On this week’s Amicus, Dahlia Lithwick interviews Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg, lawyer for Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident, husband and father, who was illegally deported to El Salvador in March due to what the government admits was an administrative error.

On this week’s Amicus podcast, Dahlia Lithwick turned to Preet Bharara to discuss this law-to-lawlessness axis and the paradox that the law is political except for when it’s not political.

Officials from at least 24 states signed on to an amicus brief in support of New Jersey’s challenge to the executive order last month, saying the change would "cause administrative confusion...and immeasurable harm to individuals."

As the judge made clear in his order appointing Clement amicus curiae, he wanted “the benefit of adversarial briefing” and “adversarial testing of the Government’s position.”

A coalition of 23 state attorneys general submitted an amicus brief, arguing that shutting the bureau would cause catastrophic harm to consumers if oversight is left to the states.
