Extradition

Here's a link to United States v. Marquez, an extradition case that the Eleventh Circuit decided today. Marquez held that "a claim that the extradition violates the rules of specialty and dual criminality is a challenge to the court’s personal jurisdiction over the defendant and must be raised in a pretrial motion pursuant to Rule 12." Thus, Marquez waived his challenges in this regard by making them three years after the pretrial motions deadline.
