Norris v Government of the United States of America

House of Lords

“A person could not be extradited to the United States of America to stand trial on charges brought under US legislation which declared cartels to be illegal, to stand trial for price-fixing offences alleged to have been committed from 1989 to 2000 because during that period price-fixing agreements and cartels were not illegal under English law, unless there were other aggravating features such as dishonesty or deception.”
