High Court refuses to grant adjournment of European Arrest Warrant hearing to allow amendments to points of objections, as the point of objection had not been filed within four days of the date fixed for hearing and there was, in any event, little prospect of success in sustaining the new point.
European arrest warrant – surrender to Poland – s. 13 of the European Arrest Warrant Act 2003 – application to amend points of objections a second time – Court’s approach to applications to amend Points of Objection in a European arrest warrant case should mirror the approach that would be taken to an application to amend a Statement of Grounds or Points of Opposition in a judicial review – O. 98, r. 5(1) of the Rules of the Superior Courts – O. 122, r. 7 of the Rules of the Superior Courts – even if the amendment is allowed there is little prospects of success in sustaining the new point
