This document is a page from a legal opinion by French lawyer William Julié, filed as an exhibit in the Ghislaine Maxwell case. It analyzes the extradition treaty between France and the USA, arguing that France has the discretion to extradite its own citizens. The text specifically rebuts a DOJ argument based on the 2007 'Hans Peterson' case (involving Senators Obama and Durbin), stating that the Peterson outcome was a discretionary ministerial decision rather than a binding judicial precedent.
