The ten-year legal quagmire surrounding Gary McKinnon, who hacked into U.S. military and NASA computers in 2001 and 2002, must end this year, a British High Court Judge has ordered (http://www.techweekeurope.co.uk/news/high-court-demands-action-over-gary-mckinnon-extradition-case-57222). McKinnon has been appealing against extradition to the U.S. (http://yro.slashdot.org/story/09/11/26/2129212/hacker-mckinnon-to-be-extradited-to-us), and two medical experts must report in 28 days on his mental state, ruling whether he would be a suicide risk if deported. This ruling could short-circuit an extradition appeal hearing in July."
