Comment on How did Mahmoud Khalil managed to challenge his (pending) deportation at all, while others were deported without due process? What makes Mahmous Khalil's case different?

I think this is it. The court documents were filed literally hours after his arrest. Others were sent to a special prison on Louisiana within 24 hours of arrest that apparently doesn’t need to follow normal laws and then deported not long after that. The government has been arguing that after someone is transferred to the Louisiana prison, normal court procedures don’t apply, causing people’s lawyers to be unable to stop deportation in time. Once someone is deported, the government has been arguing they can’t do anything about getting them back.
