What is the impact of inaccurate certifications of a record of a case?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from United States of America v. Chandler, 2019 BCCA 92 (CanLII):
If successive inaccurate certifications of a record of a case lead to the conclusion that the prosecuting authority was careless and cavalier about the available evidence, and did not exercise due diligence, the presumption can be rebutted and the requesting state may be considered to have committed an abuse of process. Such a situation may justify rejecting the request for extradition, as happened in United Kingdom v. Tarantino, 2003 BCSC 1134.
