IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUSTICE
QUEEN'S BENCH DIVISION
THE ADMINISTRATIVE COURT

		Royal Courts of Justice Strand London WC2A 2LL
		19 July 2012

1. MR JUSTICE SAUNDERS: This case, as has been explained to me, has something of a protracted history. All matters outstanding in the appeal were decided by Collins J on 7 February 2012 when he dealt with human rights aspect under Article 8 and Article 3 raised by the appellant.
2. However, as the arrest warrant in the case had been issued by a prosecutor and as the decision of the Supreme Court in Assange had not yet been handed down, there was an outstanding issue as to whether the prosecutor was an appropriate judicial authority to issue the warrant.
3. That matter having now been decided by the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court having decided that the prosecutor is an appropriate judicial authority, that ground of appeal must also be dismissed, which effectively disposes of the appeal.
4. MR JUSTICE SAUNDERS: Thank you, Ms Pye.
5. MS PYE: Thank you, my Lord.
6. MR JUSTICE SAUNDERS: I am so sorry. What do you want to say?
7. THE APPELLANT: Do I have 17 days before I am extradited?
8. MR JUSTICE SAUNDERS: How long does he have?
9. MS PYE: My Lord, the usual course is there are 14 days in which an application to certify a point of public importance can be made. Once those 14 days expire, then the 10 days in which this gentleman should be removed start to run. So 14 to 24 days.
10. MR JUSTICE SAUNDERS: Okay. Thank you. I am glad you all have these things at your fingertips, doing these things every day.
