3.02pm: The Assange team thinks it is "profoundly unjust" if allegations are made to satisfy "dual criminality" testfor extradition when they actually do not satisfy this test.

2.58pm: The warrant must be a "fair and accurate" version of the claims, Emmerson says, and the court must ask ifwhat is detailed there would be a crime in England, authorities say, according to Emmerson.

2.52pm: Robert Booth at the high court says the debate over the European arrest warrant has "gone intohyperspace", with Assange's barrister Ben Emmerson talking at double speed. The application could be significantthough, Robert says.

2.36pm: lf Assange is extradited to Sweden, and the US were then to request his extradition, what would happen tothe Swedish case?

Leave GRANTED. Appeal will proceed to 1&2 February 2012 hearing before the full court. I think it fair to say mostlegal observers [and the defence itselfl are very surprised at the decGion.

We will be ready. The legal point is of course of very great importance not just to Sweden but also for EAWs fromLithuania, Belgium, Netherlands, Greece etc.

Marianne,

I attach an updated advice. No problems but still a lot of heavy legal argument to go yet. There are 7 very\-,,independently minded Supreme Court judges sitting and a split decision is quite possible [but almost certainly not

todayl.

I know you are following events carefully. However never forget that it is only the English extradition system and. English law which are under the judicial microscope. No criticism has been made at the hearing of the Swedishvsystems or you personally.

Obviously a major one of my roles in representing you [apart from winning] is to protect the integrity of the Swedishsystem [and your office]. I still have no concerns.

Counseland I are here to represent only you, not the English extradition law or systems. I mention this just in case itappears, to those not used to our adversarial system that criticism of the English extradition system is in some wayan implied criticism of the Swedish prosecution and the extradition request. tt is not.

I will be in touch later. As you know Julie Seddon [the CPS press officer] is at the hearing and obviously is available ifever Karin needs press assistance. Just let me know if any points which you or others need clarifying.

Paul

Marianne

Just an update. I attach a note which I have received from the Supreme Court. The team is dealing with our responseIt is very frustrating that the court should chose to raise the point at this stage and to do so by writibn submissions.The legal issues are complex. No action by you is needed.

I envisage that any judgment will not now be for at least another 3 weeks. I will let you have details of our responseand that of the defence in due course. Just say if you or Karin need anything.vI hope your trip went really well and your granddaughter loved hearing all about the Assange case.

Hello Paul,

Thank you for your quick and thorough reply. And I am very relieved to hear that the rumour was all wrong. lt ofcourse seemed very unlikely, but in this case almost anything seems to be able to happen, so I thought I had bettercheck.

Hello Karin,vAll is well in London: Very mixed but not unpleasant spring weather. Obviously still no news.

I reckon it is absolutely safe to assume that your information is totally and utterly wrong. I am sure the Supreme CourtJustices will still be on leave until sometime next week. The court wiil then have to try [o find a suitable date when the\zseven Justices in the case are next all available to sit together to give the judgment. it may be that all of them do notwish or need to attend but I think they will wish to do so.

I am quite sure that the Supreme Court's officials will contact me [and counsels' clerks] prior to any date being fixedso they can make sure we are all available. I also believe that thscourt will contact me beforehand as it needl thehelp of the CPS in assisting with the arrangement of security matters with the police and the handling of press issues.[The court is concerned its website may be hacked into or just overwhelmed]. Julie will liaise with yo[ as necessarynearer the time.

As far as I know the defendant does not have to be at the hearing if he does not want to be there. He would not besummoned to attend the court [as he might be in proceedings before a lower court]. He is not on specific bailconditions to attend and if any bail issues ever arose then they can be dealt with in his absence. That said I havenever known him to miss a photo opportunity.

I will of course contact you and Marianne immediately I have any news. You are very welcome to attend if you wish. Ihope this detail enables you to deal with all the enquiries at youi end.

Just say if you or Marianne need anything at all.I

\9, I am writing on behalf of Marianne who is attending a conference and therefore has no access to her e-mail.According to the Division for CriminalCases and lnternationalJudicialCo-operation at our Ministry of Justice, theyhave obtained (unconfirmed?) information saying that Mr. Assange is summoned to the UK Supreme Court onMonday.

Option 3lf the court decides that he should not be surrendered, it will very quickly become a political issue - at least inSweden' We delegate (!)all politicalquestions to our Ministry of Justice, but I suppose there will be quite a fewtricky matters to consider.

Option 3lf the court decides that he should not be surrendered, it will very quickly become a political issue - at least inSweden. We delegate (!) all politicalquestions to our Ministry of Justice, but I suppose there will be quite a fewtricky matters to consider. We might have to agree on a mutual statement, for instance. I might get in contact withyou, in that case.

That's not a problem - happy to speak to you tomorrow when we know what's happening. My mobile is 07789 420214but I'll have it switched off in court tomorrow morning.

Hopefully everything goes as smooth as possible. My telephone is already busy, though.

Further statement on Assange v The Swedish Prosecution Authority

Following this morning's judgment by the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom in Assange v The SwedishProsecution Authority, Ms Rose (counsel for the appellant, Mr Assange) has indicated that she may make anapplication to re-open the Court's decision. Ms Rose suggested that the majority of the Court appear to have basedtheir decision on the interpretation of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, on which no argument was heardand no opportunity of making submission was given.

The Supreme Court has granted Ms Rose fourteen (14) days to make such an application. lf she decides to do so, theJustices will then decide whether to re-open the appeal and accept further submissions (either verbally through afurther hearing, or on paper) on the matter.

. We will keep you updated on progress with this application and the Justices' consideration of any such application.vWith the agreement of the respondent, the required period for extradition shall not commence until 13th June 2012,the 14th day after judgment in accordance with section 36(3)(b) of the Extradition Act 2003.

\- Dear Julie,We are preparing for tomorrow's decision from the Supreme Court. And we are prepared for (almost) all options...However, I would need your help in a few matters.

Option 1lf the court decides to surrender him, we would like to be very clear about the facts concerning the EAWregulations, , especially of the fact that he should be transferred to Sweden as soon as possible. Would that be ofany problem for you?His transfer is not an operational matter for the CPS but for the police, so saying you want him transferred as soonas possible is not a problem for us. We do have a guide to the process on our blog. Here's the link:http://bloe.cps.sov.uk/2012/01/iulian-assange-extradition-process.html

Option 2

Hi Karin

Here's what we will say if asked for a statement on Assange.

Best wishes

Julie

'vcps sTATEMENT oN AssANGE

This has been a long and complex case. Together with the Swedish Judicial Authority, we welcome thedecision of the Supreme Court that the request for extradition by the Swedish authorities was lawful and theEuropean Arrest Warrant (EAW) was valid under UK law.

We have liaised closely with the Swedish Judicial Authority after certification of the extradition request tothe UK in December 2010.

Julian Assange has exercised his statutory rights of appeal under UK law and the defence this morning hasindicated it may make an application to re-open the Supreme Court's decision.

Dear lain,

I am writing on behalf of Marianne Ny, who is out of the office today. I do not know whether you can clarify, butwould very much appreciate your opinion on time-frames.

Today is the 14th day after the SC decision, which means that the required period for extradition should commencetoday. MrAssange is obviously not available to the British Police. Willthe extradition period be postponed until he isavailable, or will the period still start running as of today?

lf the period starts running today and he would stay at the Ecuadorian embassy until after the 10th day, what wouldthe consequences be if he thereafter would leave the embassy?

Sorry to bother you, but this matter is really confusing in many ways.

Dear Karin

-, ?t a colleague of Paul Close in the Extradition Unit and lain has passed on your email and asked if I could assistwith a reply.

The extradition period will continue to run from today, and the Metropolitan Police have sent a letter to Mr Assange (athis home address, the Embassy of Ecuador and care of his solicitors) inviting him to surrender to the custody of lolice\'- at Belgravia Police Station on Friday 29th June 2012 at 11.30am. lf he fails to do so, the police will ask the court toissue an arrest warrant for the failure to surrender. With or without an arrest warrant Mr Assange can be arrested forbreach of bail as soon as he leaves the Embassy of Ecuador.

Under our Extradition Act 2003, a Requested Person can apply to be discharged if removal does not take place withinthe required 10 days and the judge "must order his discharge unless reasonable cause is shown for thedelay"- Although it seems obvious that the fact that Mr Assange will not come out of the Embassy is "reasonablecause", I expect that Paul will not run the risk of having to argue this and will apply to extend tne i O day period if thatbecomes necessary.

Finally, I should like to inform you that Mr Assange's defence solicitors have informed me that no request for Rule 3grelief has been made to the European court of Human Rights on his behalf.

I hope that what I have written is clear and assists. Please let me know if you require nay further information
