BOSTON (AP) — A U.S. appeals court won’t put on hold the extradition of two men wanted by Japan on accusations they helped smuggle former Nissan boss Carlos Ghosn out of the country in a box in 2019. The 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday rejected a petition to halt Michael and Peter Taylor’s extradition to give them time to challenge a ruling. The Taylors’ lawyers say the U.S. government tells them it could surrender the men to Japan as early as Friday. The 1st Circuit says the Taylors didn’t show they are likely to succeed. An attorney for the Taylors didn’t immediately comment.
