[2012] NIQB 53

A Polish national's application to the High Court for bail in respect of extradition proceedings was misconceived, as there was explicit provision in the Extradition Act 2003 for the granting of bail and reconsideration of refusals to grant bail at all stages of the extradition process. Recourse to the High Court should be a measure of last resort and was plainly unnecessary in circumstances where another court had jurisdiction.
