WHAT SHOULD I DO IF I AM ARRESTED OR CHARGED UNDER AN EXTRADITION ORDER?

With early and specialised legal support, it is entirely possible to navigate difficult extradition situations effectively. If you or someone you care about has been arrested or charged under an extradition order, your first step should always be to get help from a solicitor promptly, as this can significantly impact the outcome of your case. This article aims to address some frequently asked questions that you may have, giving clear explanations so you can better understand your position and rights. We’ll discuss important topics such as whether you need a solicitor when facing extradition orders, the potential defences your solicitor could raise against extradition, and considerations regarding bail applications in these cases.

Do I need a solicitor for extradition orders?

Extradition orders involve complex legal processes, often governed by international treaties and specific national legislation. Given the seriousness of extradition and its significant implications on your freedom and personal circumstances, securing experienced legal representation is highly advisable.

A solicitor specialising in extradition cases will understand the complexities associated with both domestic legislation, such as the Extradition Act 2003, and international agreements. They will be able to guide you through the procedural aspects of proceedings, prepare your defence, and offer expertise to challenge extradition requests on legitimate grounds.

Other ways a solicitor can help include:

• Clearly explaining the extradition process, ensuring that you fully understand your situation and your rights at each stage.
• Assessing the strength of the requesting country’s case and identifying weaknesses or errors in the extradition request.
• Representing you during hearings, ensuring your case is competently and robustly presented.
• Identifying human rights concerns, such as unfair treatment or possible breaches of your right to a fair trial in the requesting jurisdiction.
• Negotiating bail conditions to minimise disruption to your personal or professional life during the extradition process.
• Providing advocacy and guidance in making any available appeals if the extradition order goes against you.

If you’re subject to an extradition request, it is strongly recommended that you contact an experienced extradition solicitor without delay.

What are possible defences for extradition orders? 

One commonly raised defence is the argument of ‘double jeopardy’, which means that you have already been tried and either convicted or acquitted for the same alleged offence. Under UK law, it is generally considered unfair and unlawful to be prosecuted more than once for the same crime.

Another defence involves human rights considerations. If extradition would breach your human rights under the European Convention on Human Rights – for example, you might face torture, inhuman or degrading treatment, or an unfair trial – then this could be raised as grounds to resist extradition. Similarly, personal circumstances can sometimes be relevant, such as serious health conditions that would be inadequately treated in the requesting country.

It is also possible to challenge an extradition request based on procedural or technical grounds, such as:

• Arguing that the offence is politically motivated or that you are being prosecuted because of reasons such as race, religion, nationality or political opinions.
• Contesting that the time limit or statute of limitations for prosecuting the offence has expired.
• Claiming that the evidence provided is inadequate or does not support the charges against you.

You could also challenge extradition if the alleged offence is not recognised as criminal under UK law, known as the principle of dual criminality. In simple terms, the crime you are accused of must also be considered a criminal offence here in the UK for extradition to be justified.

Will I get bail for extradition orders?

Extradition proceedings are often lengthy and complex, leading to understandable uncertainty regarding your rights and freedoms during this period and an eagerness to secure bail so you can live relatively freely until decisions are made.

Whether or not bail is granted depends on several factors, typically considered carefully by the court. These include:

• The seriousness of the allegation against you.
• The strength of your ties within the UK, such as family, employment and community connections.
• Your previous criminal record, especially regarding compliance with bail conditions.
• The potential risk that you might abscond or attempt to evade justice.
• Cooperation demonstrated during the initial phase of the extradition process.

Bail conditions in extradition cases are often stringent and may include measures like reporting regularly to a local police station, surrendering your passport, or observing a curfew.

Will I have to go to court if I’m arrested or charged for extradition orders?

In the UK, extradition proceedings always involve a court hearing. Typically, after your arrest, you will initially appear before a magistrates’ court, usually Westminster Magistrates’ Court if you are arrested in England or Wales. It’s vital you attend any scheduled court hearings, as failing to do so could lead to your arrest on a warrant and can negatively impact your case.

The process usually involves:

• An initial hearing, where the prosecution presents the extradition request to the court.
• A timeframe given for you and your solicitor to prepare your defence, gather evidence, and make any necessary arguments against extradition.
• An extradition hearing, during which your solicitor can challenge the request by the foreign jurisdiction on grounds such as human rights violations, procedural errors, or if extradition would not be proportionate or fair.

If the court decides the extradition request is valid and lawful, you still have avenues of appeal: in the first instance, you could appeal to the High Court, and potentially as far as the Supreme Court or European Court of Human Rights, depending on the circumstances involved.

Will I go to jail if found guilty of extradition orders?

Remember that extradition proceedings themselves are not about determining guilt or innocence regarding the alleged crimes abroad. Instead, these proceedings decide whether you should be legally handed over to another jurisdiction to face trial or sentencing.

If the court grants an extradition order against you, it means you will be transferred to another country where you are wanted for criminal charges or to serve an existing sentence. Remember, however, that the decision made by a British court in extradition hearings is not the same as being convicted of a criminal offence here in the UK; it is purely a decision regarding your surrender to face justice in another jurisdiction.

Whether you go to jail ultimately depends on various circumstances, such as:

• The severity and nature of the crime alleged against you in the requesting country.
• The criminal laws and sentencing guidelines applying in that country.
• Whether you are convicted in that jurisdiction after being extradited.
• Any sentencing considerations or mitigating factors recognised by the courts overseas.

Will I go to jail if it’s my first offence involving extradition orders?

Extradition proceedings are not in themselves criminal trials, so the outcome of an extradition case is not tied to whether or not you will ultimately be found guilty and potentially sent to jail. Rather, extradition is a process that involves hearings to assess whether the extradition request from one country meets the necessary legal requirements under UK domestic and international law.

In the end, remember that jail is not an automatic outcome solely because this is your first involvement with extradition matters. Courts will carefully evaluate all relevant information provided, and a knowledgeable solicitor will advise you on the possible outcomes from the outset, guiding you through this challenging legal process and working towards the most favourable resolution.

Can I get Legal Aid for extradition orders?

Legal Aid may be available for extradition proceedings in England and Wales, depending on your individual circumstances. Extradition orders can have far-reaching consequences on your personal freedom, and the law recognises the importance of ensuring adequate legal representation in these situations.

Whether or not you qualify for Legal Aid will depend on two primary factors:

1. Means test: This assessment checks your financial circumstances, including income, savings, property and any other assets, to decide whether you meet the financial eligibility criteria for Legal Aid.
2. Merits test (the interests of justice test): This test looks at the details and complexity of your extradition case, assessing whether it is appropriate and in the interests of justice to provide public funding for legal representation.

The Legal Aid Agency will consider both your financial eligibility and the specific details of your case before granting funding. Given the complexity involved in extradition matters, it is advisable to consult a criminal defence solicitor as soon as possible. A specialist solicitor can assist you with the Legal Aid application process, ensuring that you present your circumstances clearly and accurately, and that you receive professional representation tailored to the specific challenges of extradition law.

I have given Stuart Miller a five-star review for their exceptional responsiveness to feedback and their ability to implement immediate solutions to any issues encountered with their service.This is not to suggest that you will always have an outstanding experience with everyone at the firm, but I can highly recommend Kate.

Musa Mondol

12:25 11 Dec 24

One of the things I’ve appreciated most is their exceptional communication. In fact, they take the time to explain the difficult legal points in a way that I could understand, despite their technicalities, thus I was never in the dark about what was going on. This was even more beneficial when dealing with complex transactions, which required a high level of clearness. Their commitment to updating me on every step along the way of the lawsuit indeed brought some peace of mind.

MD.Abdul Mannan

14:20 10 Dec 24

I have had the pleasure of working with Stuart Miller Solicitors on several occasions over the years, and each experience has been outstanding. Their team is made up of highly skilled and experienced criminal justice attorneys who have a deep understanding of the law. A big differentiating factor is their degree of handiness in dealing with such pressing cases, thus, readily offering direction even when the issues are hard to crack.

When you have to look for a solicitor it’s usually because you’ve found yourself in less than pleasant circumstances. That was absolutely the case for me when I reached out to Stuart Miller Solicitors.I was dealing with a matter that had transpired over two years ago and was receiving repetitive communications and misdirections from police. However, that all ended when I was represented by Stuart Miller Solicitors.They were so helpful at every stage, but especially Scarlett Rowe, who simply was exceptional.Scarlett went above and beyond what I sense my case even required. She submitted disclosures and communications to CPS in a manner and at junctures where it would be most impactful and therefore critical to a good outcome. And that’s exactly what I got—nothing short of a good outcome.

16:59 11 Jul 24

What can I say! When no one else would listen to me or give me the benefit of the doubt in a completely nonsensical case, Mohammed Zeb and Nick James were my knights in shining armor. Mohammed Zeb believed in my innocence, and Nick, along with the rest of the Stuart Miller team, upheld my integrity while tirelessly fighting my case day and night. Their commitment, dedication, and unwavering support were crucial when everyone else thought I was headed for a prison sentence. After three and a half years, when the Crown finally brought us to trial, they not only won but did so unanimously.We all see shows like "Suits" and "Better Call Saul," but if you want to get your life back, there's only one place for all criminal cases: Stuart Miller. They particularly excel at police custody representation. When you're in a tough situation, there's only one team you need—Stuart Miller. Thank you all for giving me my life back!

I actually spoke to one of the solicitors via TikTok when I came across a video they had posted - they were quick to respond and listen to my Case and offer me advice I feel they gave me some piece of mind and will definitely be keeping in touch

Nilanjana Bhattacharya

11:59 25 Jun 24

Amazing lawyer firm. After being represented by Amirah K. we were able to have our case dropped within 5 months when original estimates had been 2 years!! Most firms said they would do nothing and that we should just do legal aid. Stuart Miller said “No” and instead seeked to represent us, they chased the OIC and went far and beyond.If you need a lawyer, don’t waste time on these other smaller firms that promise nothing but scary maybes and demand thousands in return. Go with Stuart Miller, it’ll be the best decision you ever made.

Rafaela Sakaj

11:42 13 Jun 24

We found this place on the last minute and we did not expect that the problem will be resolved.Was a complicated matter and we wouldn’t trust to everyone but Abu Kibla with his professional experience made it so calm and easy for us. We cannot thank him enough for being able to resolve our case with the best outcome ever. We will definitely recommend Abu to any friends or relatives. Once again thank you for the bottom of the heart.

I have unfortunately found myself in a position to be needing legal advice and representation in court. This company has been professional and efficient from start to finish. Excellent communication and advice from Kelly and representation from Robert in court. They were both amazing and explained every step of the process and calmed me down and also managed to get the unfounded charges dropped. I can’t recommend them enough. They absolutely take your case personally and try their hardest for you every step of the way.

Thank you so much to Mohammed Zeb And Sophie. We was supported in all steps along the way of my little sister’s case. They made us extremely comfortable and sufficiently advised us in every aspect. All of our questions were answered in detail and all information we needed was clearly outlined to us. With the prosecution pushing for jail time, Mr Zeb was able to quickly diffuse the situation in court and get an outcome for us that was much less detrimental. We are so happy that we chose to go with this firm and would recommend Stuart Miller to any and everyone. Thank you again to Mr Zeb and Sophie for all your support, we will never forget it.

Ayesha Akbar

20:24 06 Mar 24

We had an issue with the police raising an incorrect safeguarding issue against our daughter because we used a Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM) which they disagreed with (wet cupping therapy). The police wanted us to sign a community resolution order admitting that we assaulted our child! We spoke to Mohammed Zeb who swiftly acted to contact experts in our field and his field, along with experts in social services matters and gave us recommendations to challenge the police. Their weak case quickly dissolved into no further action when the police realised that we would not accept a resolution order claiming we assaulted our child.I would strongly recommend Mr Zeb to all and would use nobody but them in the future.

Stuart Millers were great at dealing with a tricky case and managed to get a great outcome. From the first meeting and hearing, Abu Kibla was friendly, knowledgable and very helpful and you can see a genuine care for his clients. Luke Collins did the day to day and was great at preparing clear written representations and dealing with the CPS. Kathleen Joyce attended the final hearing and despite a last minute time change by the court the day before, she was well prepared, presented the case and mitigation arguments perfectly and was very reassuring and comforting throughout the whole day. Professional, responsive and reasonable fees. Would definitely recommend the firm.

Unfortunately I got myself into abit of trouble and didn't have a solicitor at the time. When I was in the police station I was asked if I wanted a solicitor and I said yes and I was then put in a cell till I was interviewed. Officer come to my cell to take me to my interview and asked if I wanted to consult with my solicitor I said yes, when we got to the Consultation room Mr Zeb was waiting for me and he ensured me that everything was going to be okay and this case will be solved with no problems at all and he was right I got NFA and the case was dropped that's all thanks to Mr Zeb he was very professional in this field and was intouch with me and kept me updated with everything that was going on. I will definitely use this firm again in future.

Clare Peters

20:48 06 Feb 24

Words can not do justice to Stuart Miller Solicitors. I am forever grateful to Mohammad Zeb and Savannah who came to me like angels along with their appointed barrister Harry Mcdonald when my son was on trial. With my son having three charges against him along with joint enterprise which included affray and violent disorder. They took the case on and from the very 1st day kept me updated with the progress and supported me throughout the case. With my son in remand and a serious injury to his face they kept him motivated and in the right frame of mind with video links. Also they were available to him even on weekends if he had any questions. Their guidance and professionalism was absolutely outstanding. Savannah was superb throughout this case. Her approach to everything made it easy for me and my family. The barrister Harry took the case on at short notice and what a outstanding approach he had. Being in court for the 1st time for my son he represented my son superbly. After arguing his defence for my son for 7 gruelling days my son was found not guilty of all charges. I can not praise Stuart Miller enough. A must go to firm if you are in a unfortunate situation and need legal help. Wish Mohammad Zeb, Savannah, Harry Mcdonald and everyone at Stuart Miller the very best for the future. A very big thank you from me and my family.

When I called for help, straight away, they pick up the call. Spoken to me with respect and followed up with an email of instructions, which is a massive relief.
