Thanks a lot! I see many points of law on the base of which an appeal would win. For example, forcing witnesses to say a statement, and then writing it down out of its context, sending essential (as it appears during the trial) documents to witnesses or experts in a timing such that they cannot read them, wrong characterization of medical notions with the aim to induce confusion, etc. In total, there are easily 20 or more points which would have this trial totally moot if it was held in France for example, and I'm sure that UK's version of justice is not that different.

Perhaps. It is arguable that Mr Assange is not receiving a fair trial in the procedural sense of the word. The appeal court would be entitled to quash the verdict or remand it for reconsideration. Given previous precedent such as the Gary McKinnon case, I rather hope the High Court would quash the verdict and prevent Mr Assange's extradition.
