Summary

This document is page 5 of a legal filing (Document 171) from the Ghislaine Maxwell case (1:20-cr-00330-PAE), filed on March 23, 2021. The defense argues that Maxwell is not a flight risk because she is willing to renounce both her French and British citizenships and waive extradition rights. The text cites a legal opinion by Mr. Julié regarding French extradition law (Article 696-4) to support the claim that she would not be protected from extradition if she fled to France after renouncing citizenship.
