Summary

This page is an excerpt from a legal filing by French attorney William Julié in the case United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE). The text argues that French laws prohibiting the extradition of French nationals should be interpreted strictly and should not apply to individuals who are no longer French nationals at the time of the request. It specifically cites Article 3 of the Treaty and Article 696-4 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure, arguing these laws are designed to prevent offenders from fraudulently acquiring citizenship to escape extradition.
