The interpretation of flight risk in extradition proceedings
✕
Summary
Whereas, on the one hand, the restriction of personal liberty is functionally—and therefore also temporally—limited to the fulfilment of such obligations, on the other hand the risk of flight typically arises, in practice, in broader terms than in ordinary matters, with the consequence that the balancing of interests (protection of personal liberty vs. the fulfilment of the demands of justice) inherently entails an assessment of broader scope than under the ordinary framework of values within our legal system, this being associated with a different standard of reasoning required from the court.
