That isn't the case. This ruling was made by a magistrate, who only deals with lower cases and administration for bigger cases. The actual extradition case will be heard by a different person.

Because it's such a specialist area of law, they're all handled by a single magistrates court (Westminster) with a set of specially experienced magistrates. Appeals go to the Administrative Court list of the High Court, though, which is potentially a panel of very senior judges indeed.
