UPDATE:  Bail hearing is continued two weeks. Judge requested briefs from both parties on "special circumstances." Richard had lots of supporters in court. Right now it looks very favorable on the flight risk, danger to society issues.

"Special circumstances" is a little complex. This article goes into how to show special circumstances.

http://www.curtis.com/siteFiles/News/The%20Champion%20January-February%202011.pdf

The article states one must show (1) high probability of success on the merits, (2) Unusually prolonged or delayed extradition proceedings, (3) Lack of "diplomatic necessity" for denying bail, (4) other circumstances sometimes recognized as "special," i.e. health, juvenile status, religious practice, need to attend to other legal proceedings, wide spread communal support, nature of offense charged, acquittal in the requesting country, parity of treatment with a co-defendant who had been released on bail, availability of bail in the US for charged offense, (5) circumstances not usually considered "special" which may be i.e., lack of flight risk/danger to society, failure to receive credit for time served in US, lack of prior criminal record, good character of defendant, tactics or motive of requesting government. Based on all of these "special circumstances" I think Powers has a good chance of prevailing if the judge is fair.

______

Hearing was postponed to 2:00 p.m. Powers and his team are confident they have the evidence and law to prove Powers should be allowed bail and should not be extradited to Costa Rica. Of course having the law and evidence on your side means nothing when corruption and lots of money is involved. Hopefully this is a fair and just judge.

ORIGINAL: Here is Richard Powers' motion for bail. The attorney brings up the fact that statute of limitations have run, double jeopardy and Powers was cleared of charges in Costa Rica. Another friend of Richard's who is an attorney went into the specifics of the extradition treaty between the US the Costa Rica. Based on all this evidence and law Richard should not be extradited and should be released on bail while he awaits the extradition hearing. Currently there is a scheduled status conference in September.

Exhibits D to H. The attorney forgot to redact Richard's social security number, driver's license number.... This is a redacted copy which I made. I only removed his confidential information. This is the court file for the criminal case here in Los Angeles and letters of recommendation from friends and family saying that Richard is a well loved member of the community and not a flight risk. I didn't know this. Richard has not been able to get a job. He has instead been volunteering at different places.
