00:00Christian Castro is not above the law and Greg Abbott isn't either. Under extradition clause of
00:07the U.S. Constitution and the 1797 Federal Extradition Act and Texas law, Governor Wall's
00:17request triggered a mandatory obligation for Governor Abbott to issue a governor's rendition
00:24warrant to Cameron County Sheriff Manuel Trevino to begin the transfer of Christian Castro back to
00:32Minnesota to face justice. Instead of promptly fulfilling his legal ministerial duty to execute
00:39Governor's rendition warrant for Castro, however, Governor Abbott has withheld the warrant and held
00:46up Castro's extradition for nearly three months. I should never have to have to file this lawsuit,
00:52but I have done so today to protect the Constitution, the rule of law, Minnesota's rights, and the people
00:59of the state of Minnesota, and of course the fair administration of justice. Christian Castro is not
01:06above the law and Greg Abbott isn't either.
