A spokesperson for the Australian attorney general said the government doesn’t comment on extradition matters.
Under Australia’s Extradition Act, Duggan is entitled to appeal directly to the attorney general as to why he shouldn’t be sent to the US.
There is no set time period for the attorney general to make a decision, but by law it should be made as soon as practicable.
