Document Summary

This legal document argues that France's laws and practices prevent the extradition of its nationals, even if they hold dual citizenship with the United States. It refutes a defense expert's claim of no precedent by citing the 2006 case of Hans Peterson, a dual U.S.-French citizen who confessed to murder in the U.S. but was shielded from U.S. law enforcement by France after turning himself in to French authorities.
