A federal court in the Southern District of Florida entered a default judgment against Kenia Elizabeth Vásquez Dubón and set a judicial debt of $668,390.95. The case concerns failure to comply with a final U.S. removal order. The amount is close to $700,000, but the detailed figure is lower.

The recognized amount includes penalties calculated at $998 per day plus accumulated statutory interest. The daily rate is one part of the calculation, while interest also contributes to the total. The information does not say how long the charge applied or when the count began.

The woman had been warned about remaining in U.S. territory. The information connects that warning to a final removal order and the debt eventually fixed by the court. The exact total is $668,390.95, although it may be rounded as nearly $700,000.

Vásquez Dubón was identified by name, and the default judgment came from the Southern District of Florida. No details are given about earlier proceedings, the ruling date, the original order date or when noncompliance began.

The amounts are distinct: $668,390.95 is the specific judicial debt, nearly $700,000 is a rounded description, and $998 is the daily penalty rather than the total. Accumulated legal interest is also included. The debt is tied to remaining in the country after a final removal order.
