Document Summary

This document is page 6 of a US Government filing (Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN) opposing the defendant's (Ghislaine Maxwell) third bail motion. The prosecution argues that the defendant's offer to renounce her French and British citizenships is "window dressing" and a strategic but meaningless gesture. The document cites correspondence with the French Ministry of Justice confirming that France will not extradite her because she held French nationality at the time of the alleged crimes (1990s and 2016), regardless of current renunciation. It further notes that while UK extradition is not barred by nationality, the process is lengthy, uncertain, and subject to extensive litigation.
