EFTA00031918.pdf

This document is a Reply Memorandum filed on March 16, 2021, by Ghislaine Maxwell's defense team in support of her third motion for bail. The defense proposes a comprehensive bail package including a $28.5 million bond, asset monitoring by a retired federal judge, and renunciation of her British and French citizenships to mitigate flight risk concerns. Attached as Exhibit A is a legal opinion from French attorney William Julié arguing that if Maxwell renounces her French citizenship, she would no longer be protected from extradition by France, countering the French Ministry of Justice's position.

EFTA00019291.pdf

This document is a Reply Memorandum filed by Ghislaine Maxwell's defense team on December 18, 2020, in support of her renewed motion for bail. The defense argues that the government lacks significant documentary evidence, relies solely on witness testimony from decades ago, and that Maxwell has strong ties to the U.S. through her spouse (whose name is redacted) and friends who have pledged assets. The document also addresses flight risk concerns, arguing that extradition from France or the UK is possible or unlikely to be needed due to waivers, and cites a COVID-19 surge at the detention center as further justification for release.

EFTA00016784.pdf

This document is a legal opinion by French attorney William Julié, dated December 18, 2020, submitted in support of Ghislaine Maxwell's motion for release. Julié argues against the US government's position that France would not extradite Maxwell because of her French citizenship. He contends that under the US-France Extradition Treaty and the EU-US Agreement, France retains the discretion to extradite nationals and, unlike the 2007 Hans Peterson case, would likely do so in Maxwell's case.

This document is a page from a legal filing by attorney William Julié, dated May 23, 2021. Julié argues that the intention of French lawmakers regarding Article 696-4 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure was not to protect individuals from extradition after they have lost their French nationality. He supports this by citing past instances where the French government deported such individuals for criminal offenses.

This document is a page from a legal filing by attorney William Julié, dated May 23, 2021. It argues that France can legally deport individuals who have been stripped of their French nationality, citing the case of Djamel Beghal, a dual French-Algerian citizen convicted of terrorism. The text explains how Beghal's citizenship was revoked to facilitate his removal to Algeria, navigating European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) case law on the matter.

DOJ-OGR-00001269.jpg

This document is a page from a legal brief authored by attorney William Julié, filed on May 23, 2021. The brief argues that under French law, the prohibition on extraditing nationals should only apply to individuals who are French citizens at the time of the extradition request, not to those who have lost their citizenship. This interpretation aims to prevent the fraudulent acquisition of nationality as a means to escape justice.

This document is page 4 of a legal filing (Exhibit 120-2) authored by attorney William Julié. It outlines legal arguments regarding extradition requests between the United States and France, specifically focusing on the 'nationality protection' clause in the 1996 Extradition Treaty and the French Code of Criminal Procedure. The text argues that extradition should not be granted if the person sought holds French nationality at the time of the offense.

DOJ-OGR-00001267.jpg

This document is a legal memorandum written by French attorney William Julié on March 14, 2021, filed in the US v. Maxwell case. It argues against a French Ministry of Justice assertion, stating that France could legally extradite Ghislaine Maxwell if she renounces her French citizenship, which she stated she is prepared to do to secure bail. The memo aims to counter the argument that her French nationality creates an insurmountable flight risk due to non-extradition policies.

DOJ-OGR-00001258.jpg

This page from a legal filing (March 23, 2021) argues for Ghislaine Maxwell's release on bail. The defense contends that Maxwell's offer to renounce her French citizenship is a valid condition of release, countering a letter from the French Ministry of Justice which claimed such renunciation wouldn't change extradition rules. The defense relies on an opinion by French counsel William Julié to argue the government's interpretation of French law is incorrect.

DOJ-OGR-00001204.jpg

A legal opinion filed on December 23, 2020, by French attorney William Julié regarding the extradition of Ghislaine Maxwell. Julié argues that under French law and the Extradition Treaty (referencing a past interpretation by Senators Durbin and Obama), there is no absolute rule against extraditing nationals and that the French government would likely execute an extradition decree against Maxwell. The document also cites the 2010 EU-US extradition agreement as further justification for cooperation.

DOJ-OGR-00001202.jpg

This legal document, authored by French lawyer William Julié on December 18, 2020, is a response to a U.S. government memorandum concerning a defendant's release. Julié critiques the U.S. government's reliance on a letter from the French Minister of Justice, arguing it misinterprets French extradition law by ignoring the supremacy of international treaties, such as the extradition treaty between the USA and France, over domestic statutes. The core argument is that France may indeed be able to extradite its own citizens under these treaties, contrary to the U.S. government's position.

This document is page 8 of a legal memorandum filed by Ghislaine Maxwell's defense on December 28, 2020. It argues against the government's assertion that Maxwell is a flight risk, claiming her use of a trust and pseudonym to buy a home was for safety, not evasion. The defense also contends that Maxwell's waiver of extradition rights is significant and cites expert William Julié to counter claims that France would refuse to extradite her.

This document is the final page of a legal opinion by French lawyer William Julié filed in the Ghislaine Maxwell case (1:20-cr-00330). Julié argues that French law does not absolutely prohibit the extradition of nationals and cites a past letter from Senators Durbin and Obama to support the interpretation that France has discretion to extradite. He concludes it is unlikely the French government would refuse to extradite Maxwell, especially given the 2010 EU-US extradition agreement.

This document is a page from a legal memorandum filed on December 23, 2020, by French lawyer William Julié regarding the extradition of Ghislaine Maxwell. Julié argues that the US-France Extradition Treaty allows France discretion to extradite its own citizens, countering the DOJ's reliance on the 2007 'Peterson case' precedent. The text analyzes the Peterson case, noting it was a discretionary decision by the Ministry of Justice rather than a court ruling, and references a 2007 letter from Senators Obama and Durbin regarding that matter.

DOJ-OGR-00002223.jpg

This legal document, authored by French lawyer William Julié on December 18, 2020, is a response to a US government memorandum regarding a defendant's motion for release. Julié refutes the US government's interpretation of a letter from the French Minister of Justice, arguing that their analysis of French extradition law is incomplete. He asserts that under the French Constitution (Article 55) and the Code of Criminal Procedure (Article 696), international treaties—such as the extradition treaty between the US and France—prevail over domestic law, meaning the key issue is the treaty's terms, not general French legislation.

This legal document, authored by French lawyer William Julié on December 18, 2020, is a response to a US government memorandum concerning a defendant's release. Julié argues that the US government's reliance on a letter from the French Minister of Justice is misplaced, as it selectively quotes French law while ignoring the supremacy of international extradition treaties under the French Constitution. The core argument is that the extradition treaty between the USA and France should govern the case, not the specific article of the French criminal code cited by the Minister.

DOJ-OGR-00002218(1).jpg

This legal document is a filing by Ms. Maxwell's defense, arguing that she is not a flight risk. The defense refutes the government's interpretation of her actions (like buying a home with a trust) as evidence of intent to flee, claiming they were for protection. It also argues that her willingness to waive extradition rights to France and the UK shows her commitment to facing charges, countering the government's claims about French extradition law.

DOJ-OGR-00002147.jpg

This legal analysis, authored by William Julié, discusses the factors making it highly likely that the French government would extradite Ms Ghislaine Maxwell to the United States. It considers the Extradition Treaty between the USA and France, Ms Maxwell's dual American and French nationalities, her ties to the USA, and the unlikelihood of France prosecuting her for crimes committed in the USA, especially if she fled France in violation of bail.

DOJ-OGR-00002146.jpg

This document is a page from a legal opinion filed on December 14, 2020, by French attorney William Julié in the case of United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell. The text argues that French Constitutional law and the 1996 Extradition Treaty with the US do not strictly prohibit the extradition of French nationals, asserting that it is ultimately an executive decision. The author concludes that if Maxwell were to flee to France, the French Investigating Chamber would not be legally bound to block her extradition to the United States.

DOJ-OGR-00002144.jpg

This legal document, authored by attorney William Julié, analyzes the legal framework surrounding the extradition of a country's own nationals, with a specific focus on France and its treaty with the USA. It contrasts different legal approaches under international law, noting that some countries constitutionally prohibit extraditing citizens while others, particularly common law jurisdictions, permit it. The document also examines European law, including the European Convention on Extradition and the European Arrest Warrant, which has different rules for member states.

This document is page 19 of a legal filing (Document 97-22) in the case of United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell, authored by French attorney William Julié. It provides a legal analysis of the Extradition Treaty between France and the USA, arguing that unlike other treaties (such as the European Convention on Extradition), the US-France treaty does not explicitly prohibit the extradition of French nationals. It contrasts this with treaties France holds with countries like Morocco and China, and compares it favorably to the treaty with Canada.
