139.This section provides for the situation where the person has consented to his extradition under section 45 and a second Part 1 warrant is issued in respect of him before the judge orders his extradition (subsections (1) and (2)).
140.The judge is not required to order the person's extradition, but he may do so or he may postpone the proceedings until the other warrant has been disposed of (subsection (3)). This is subject to section 51 below (subsection (4)). In deciding whether or not to order extradition he must also take into account (subsection (5)) the following issues in particular:
the relative seriousness of the offences;
the place where each offence was committed or is alleged to have been committed;
the date each warrant was issued; and
whether the person is accused of having committed the offences or of being unlawfully at large after conviction.
