The release of up to 2,500 migrants at the southern border into the United States on Friday by Biden administration officials may have violated a restraining order set by a federal court in Florida, a judge said Monday.
U.S. District Court Judge T. Kent Wetherell, who issued an order late Thursday blocking the administration from releasing some migrants into the the U.S. without immediate notices to appear before an immigration court, wrote a two-page order Monday asking why Department of Homeland Security officials should not be held in contempt over the release of migrants on Friday.

“The Court takes allegations of noncompliance with its orders very seriously, irrespective of the source of the allegations,” Wetherell wrote.
The judge cited reports from the Washington Times that reported “Border Patrol paroled 2,500 migrants after judge’s ruling halting program,” noting "it is possible that the article is inaccurate."

"Defendants shall show cause why they should not be held in contempt for violating the temporary restraining order," Wetherell added, giving the Justice Department until 3 p.m. EST Monday to "show cause."
