If the Honduran Supreme Court orders the Honduran military to put him on
a plane out of the country how is that a coup d'etat?

Under Article 306 of the Honduran Constitution, the Supreme Court has the
right to send law enforcement to execute an arrest warrant, but it's
unclear to me, as to whether the military constitutes "law enforcement".
Under Article 102, no Honduran citizen can be exiled. From my seat,
Zelaya should have been arrested and brought to trial.

Does the Honduran Supreme Court have the authority to order the Honduran
military to arrest the Honduran President?

I don't know, but all parties have to follow the Constitution, or else
it's called a coup.
