District Judge Fred Beery was a harsh rebuke of the Trump administration and ordered the release of five-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and his father, Alexander Conejo Arias.
The two were detained in Minnesota by immigration officials.
Local school officials and the young boy's mother say he was used as bait to get her to open the door of their home.
They were taken to a detention center about 70 miles southwest of San Antonio.
Last Wednesday, protests erupted outside the facility and two protesters were arrested.
Judge Beery accused the Trump administration of ignoring the Declaration of Independence and, quote, traumatizing children.
The order requires the pair's release to a public place no later than Tuesday.
