OT: An Electric Vehicle Owner Speaks Out...

Does this mean you accept that the courts are requesting from the US he can rely on the First Amendment and that it's not bullshit after all?

As already explained, it cause a year's delay in proceedings.

Extradition is first considered at a Magistrate's Court. They also try

90% of cases and during Covid they were struggling to cope. That wasn't helped by an increasing number of arrests, following a drive to recruit more police.

Nope.

Nope.

That is not discussing that question.

No operation in the USA gets any say on whether that constitutional amendment applys to foreigners.

It wasnt EXPLAINED, it was actually CLAIMED, in error.

Only in theory with a very high profile extradition like Assange's

Irrelevant to Assange's extradition.

Ditto.

ALL cases start with a hearing in a Magistrate's Court. In his case, Westminster Magistrate's Court. There is no way to bypass that first step.

Not irrelevant to the time taken to bring his case to the Court.

[Rod Speed]

Irrelevant to why that year happened.

But that is just a rubber stamp exercise with a very high profile extradition like Assange's and is irrelevant to the effect of covid.

Only you said anything about bypass.

Wrong given that in his case its just a rubber stamp exercise.

[Fredxx]

Everyone else was. You're the odd one out.

[Colin Bignell]

The Court still needs to hear all the evidence and the initial decision was to refuse extradition, so hardly a rubber-stamp exercise.

[Rod Speed]

More bullshit

[Rod Speed]

That wasnt a magistrate

[Colin Bignell]

Westminster Magistrate's Court made that decision. It was appealed by the US lawyers and the High Court ordered the WMC to reverse the decision. This was all in a link I provided in a previous post.

[Rod Speed]

Bullshit.

You are ignoring the second US Grand Jury

You are ignoring the second US Grand Jury

You are misrepresenting what it said.

[Colin Bignell]

As it states here, the Westminster Magistrates' Court made that ruing in January 2021:

I have found three US Grand Jury indictments against him:

6 March 2018 the initial charge of conspiracy to commit unlawful computer intrusion 23 May 2019 An addition 18 allegations of offences relating to national defence information 24 June 2020 A widening of the scope of the conspiracy in regards to the 18 offences previously raised.

Perhaps you would like to explain in what way your believe I am ignoring the second, as all were raised before the extradition request was considered.

This is, of course, rhetorical, as I don't actually expect you to support your assertions with any form of evidence.

[Rod Speed]

Just a rubber stamp, as I said.

And you previously ignored ALL of them when you stupidly claimed that the bulk of the 5 year delay was due to Assage's activity.

Which does not involve the death penalty.

Pity it was not done in the USA even if it can be proven that Assange actually did that so the USA has no jurisdiction.

And that one was the main cause of the post covid delay because those involved the death penalty.

Which still doesnt involve any US jurisdiction even if it can be proven that Assage actually did anything more than expose the information that Manning stole.

But you didnt even mention it when claiming that the bulk of the 5 year delay was entirely due to Assange's activity.

We all swooned at the evidence you presented to support your claim that the bulk of the 5 year delay was entirely due to Assange's activity.
