THE High Court is now expected to rule on the extent of the breaches of former FIFA vice president Jack Warner’s constitutional rights in his challenge to his extradition to the United States.

On September 23, Justice Karen Reid ordered a permanent stay of Warner’s extradition proceedings, finding that they could no longer lawfully continue. However, she allowed the trial to proceed to determine the constitutional breaches, violations, and the relief, declarations and compensation to which Warner may be entitled.

She reserved her ruling after the three-hour-long session at the Waterfront Judicial Centre, Port of Spain, on October 3.
