Also from NYT:
There are some updates in an immigration case that has drawn much attention from President Trump: The Justice Department has complied — but only in part — with an order issued Monday by a federal judge demanding more information by noon today about when flights of suspected Venezuelan gang members took off from the United States to El Salvador and whether the timing of the flights violated a ruling he had issued stopping them.
In a brief filing, department lawyers asserted, as they already have in court, that no deportation flights left the United States after a written order by the judge, James E. Boasberg, was formally placed on the docket at 7:25 p.m. on Saturday.
But the lawyers refused again to tell Judge Boasberg precisely when the two flights took off, leaving unanswered the question of whether they left after he issued an oral ruling from the bench at about 6:45 p.m. that day seeking to stop them.
The department lawyers said that providing such details would be “inappropriate” because they say the administration did not violate the order. At the same time, however, the lawyer said they could provide more information in a private setting.
This leaves Judge Boasberg with a decision to make. He could simply take the government’s word that they did not willfully violate his order to stop the flights, or he could press forward by asking for more specific information and determine for himself if his order was broken.
