The federal government is working to secure a charter flight to return a man who was removed from the U.S. back to America so he can have proper due process proceedings, the Justice Department said in court documents filed Wednesday.

Last week, U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy ordered the man, only known by the initials O.C.G., to be returned to the United States after he found that necessary due process steps in his removal proceedings were "ignored" by the Trump administration.

O.C.G.'s attorneys argued that he has no criminal history and sought asylum in the United States after multiple violent attacks against him in his native country of Guatemala.

U-Haul International took swift action against members of the white nationalist group Patriot Front who rented its trucks to transport those participating in a march Saturday in downtown Kansas City, the company said Tuesday.

Those who signed the rental contracts are now prohibited from any future business with U-Haul, spokesman Jeff Lockridge said.
