In each case the appellant needs the High Court’s permission to appeal (in the 2003 Act, described as ‘leave to appeal’).]

Exercise of the High Court’s powers

(i)give case management directions, or

(2) If the High Court so directs, a party may attend a hearing by live link.

(3) The general rule is that where the High Court exercises its powers at a hearing it may do so only if the defendant attends, in person or by live link, but, despite the general rule, the court may exercise its powers in the defendant’s absence if—

(b)subject to any appeal to the Supreme Court, the result of the court’s order would be the discharge of the defendant; or

(c)the defendant is represented and—

(ii)the defendant’s presence is impracticable by reason of his or her ill health or disorderly conduct.

(4) If the High Court gives permission to appeal to the High Court—

(a)unless the court otherwise directs, the decision indicates that the court gives the appellant permission to appeal on each ground identified by the appeal notice;

(b)unless the court otherwise directs, the decision indicates that the court finds reasonably arguable each ground on which the court gives permission to appeal; and

(c)the court must give such directions as are required for the preparation and hearing of the appeal, including a direction as to whether the appeal must be heard by a single judge of the High Court or by a divisional court.

(5) If the High Court decides without a hearing an application for permission to appeal from the High Court to the Supreme Court, the High Court must announce its decision at a hearing in public.

(6) The High Court may—

(a)shorten a time limit or extend it (even after it has expired), unless that is inconsistent with other legislation;

(b)allow or require a party to vary or supplement a notice that that party has served;

(c)direct that a notice or application be served on any person;

(d)allow a notice or application to be in a different form to one set out in the Practice Direction, or to be presented orally.

(7) A party who wants an extension of time within which to serve a notice or make an application must—

(a)apply for that extension of time when serving that notice or making that application; and

(b)give the reasons for the application for an extension of time.

[Note. The time limits for serving an appeal notice are prescribed by the Extradition Act 2003: see rule 17.19.]

Case management in the High Court

17.18.—(1) The High Court and the parties have the same duties and powers as under Part 3 (Case management), subject to paragraph (3).

(2) A master of the High Court, a deputy master, or a court officer nominated for the purpose by the Lord Chief Justice—

(a)must fulfil the duty of active case management under rule 3.2, and in fulfilling that duty may exercise any of the powers of case management under—

(i)rule 3.5 (the court’s general powers of case management),

subject to the directions of a judge of the High Court; and

(b)not more than 14 days after the day on which the Secretary of State informs the defendant of the Secretary of State’s decision, starting with that day, where under Part 2 of the Act—

(ii)the Secretary of State orders the defendant’s extradition.

(3) An authority or territory seeking the defendant’s extradition which wants to appeal against an order for the defendant’s discharge must serve the appeal notice—
