Final arguments in the extradition case for Meng Wanzhou will take place early next year

Meng Wanzhou, chief financial officer of Huawei, leaves her home to go to B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver, Wednesday, May 27, 2020. Lawyers for Meng Wanzhou are alleging that Canada's national spy agency was in on a plan for border officers to detain the Huawei executive for hours before her arrest at Vancouver's airport and was mindful of the political implications of her arrest.

Final arguments in the extradition case for Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou will take place early next year.

The BC Supreme Court approved a schedule proposed by the Crown and Meng's defence team.

In a letter to Associate Chief Justice Heather Holmes, Crown lawyer John Gibb-Carsley says the schedule aims to resolve all necessary evidentiary issues through the summer and early fall.

Hearings are to resume on August 17th, when the court will meet for five days to hear arguments over privilege claims in the case.
