when he was seized by agents on the street and forced across the border.

The Department of Homeland Security said it has no record that agents deported Montes that night. Instead, the department said, Montes crossed the border into Mexico voluntarily, immediately revoking his DACA status, which shields undocumented immigrants brought to the country as children.

All of those who made statements on Montes' behalf said he had no intention of going to Mexico and was visibly shaken when he found himself back in his native country.

Both sides agree on what happened next: Montes tried to re-enter the following night by jumping the border wall, was caught by Border Patrol agents and deported back to Mexico.

The new filing in federal court in southern California shines new light on the Trumpadministration's controversial moves to ramp up deportations of undocumented immigrants. Montes' lawyers are asking a judge to order Homeland Security to let him return home.

President Trump campaigned to end the DACA program, but maintained the program after taking office and said he will treat protected DREAMers "with great heart." Still, Trump's immigration agents have said these young immigrants are not immune from deportation. On Wednesday, Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly warned that the program may soon be struck down by federal courts.

When USA TODAY first reported Montes' case on April 18, Homeland Security said his DACA status had expired in 2015. The next day, the department changed its account, saying his DACA status was active, but that it was revoked the moment he voluntarily left the U.S.
