TORONTO: Lawyers for Huawei Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou will bring a motion to challenge her extradition to the United States in January 2020, the company said in a statement on Thursday after her legal team appeared in a Canadian court to set future court dates.

Her lawyers are seeking a stay of extradition proceedings on several grounds, including allegations that Canadian Border Services Agency officers delayed Meng's arrest to extract evidence under the guise of a routine immigration check before she was arrested by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police .They made similar allegations in a civil lawsuit in March. In a written defense filed on Monday, government lawyers argued that Meng's suit should be dismissed.
