Neteczca v Governor of Holloway Prison: Admn 27 Jun 2014

The claimant’s extradition had been ordered, but the extradition had not taken place within the necessary time period, and she now applied to be discharged.
Held: The statutory scheme did not permit the right of a requested person to be discharged, to be circumvented by agreeing a later starting date after the expiry of the period identified in s.36(3)(a), unless reasonable cause is shown. The claimant was entitled to her hearing under section 36(8).
