Can the requesting state simply resubmit an extradition request if the first one fails on political grounds?

Requesting states do sometimes attempt to repackage failed requests with modified charges or additional evidence. However, the principle of abuse of process can bar successive requests that are materially identical or represent continued political harassment. Courts examine whether new information genuinely changes the case or whether resubmission constitutes oppression. Additionally, if Interpol’s CCF has deleted a Red Notice for Article 3 violations, a fresh notice on substantially similar facts faces heightened scrutiny. Documenting the procedural history of prior requests strengthens abuse of process arguments significantly.
