Managing Attorney Matthew Fabisch Quoted in Providence Phoenix Article

Fabisch Law, L.L.C. Managing Attorney, who also serves as the President and General Counsel for Rhode Island's Stephen Hopkins Center for Civil Rights, was quoted in this week's Providence Phoenix commenting on the historical origins of the arguments raised in the briefing of Rhode Island Governor Chafee's arguments before the United States First Circuit Court of Appeals in the Pleau Murder/Extradition case. The Hopkins Center had previously submitted a brief in the case arguing that the Governor's position should prevail, but because the Federal Government did not have the power to prosecute the case, not, as the Governor had argued, because of a historical "right to refuse" to extradite.
