[2006] EWHC 2256 (Admin)

It was inappropriate for the judge in extradition proceedings to make an order for disclosure in relation to allegations of abuse of process. The appropriate course was for the judge to call upon the judicial authority that had issued the arrest warrant, or the state seeking extradition, for whatever information or evidence the judge required in order to determine whether an abuse of process had occurred or not.
