Yoo Byung-Eun, former chairman of the Semo Group, arrested in the United States, Yoo Hyuk-ki, the younger man, responded to the repatriation of Korea by appointing a lawyer for a large law firm.

According to U.S. courts and prosecutors on the 24th, local arrest at Westchester County, New York on the 22nd, appointed Paul Shechtman, a lawyer with more than 30 years of legal experience, prior to the extradition.

Criminal Case Specialist Shechtman is a partner attorney for law firm Bracewell, headquartered in Texas, with offices in major US cities such as New York, Washington DC and Dallas, and overseas offices in London and Dubai.

Born at Harvard Law School, he was formerly the Lockell of the former Supreme Court Justice Warren E. Berger. He served at the New York Attorney's Office and lectured at the University of Pennsylvania and Columbia Law School.

Immediately after the arrest, Mr. Yu said he would go to court hearings via video and phone calls.

In the United States, all suspects are arrested and'first attended' before the judge.

At this point, the judge announces the rights of the suspect and listens to the views.

Subsequent procedures have been reported to have not been detailed.

First, the US prosecution has requested the US court to decide on the delivery of the offender, in response to a request for extradition from South Korea.

At the request of the Korean Ministry of Justice, the court listens to Mr. Yu's position based on what the US prosecution has claimed and decides whether or not to return it.

Yu is the youngest son of former chairman Yoo Byung-Eun, whom the prosecution saw as the actual controlling shareholder of the Sewol ferry company'Cheonghae Shipping' and was the key suspect in the investigation of the Sewol fertility owner Viri and led the management of affiliates.

The New York Southern District Attorney says Mr. Yu is accused of seven charges, including embezzlement.

The US court issued a warrant for arrest on February 27 on the basis of a South Korean crime claim, and US authorities arrested Mr. Yu on the 22nd in about five months.

The U.S. prosecution has asked the US court to repatriate Mr. Yu, who must be tried in Korea under the extradition treaty concluded with South Korea regarding a new recruit.

In addition, the US prosecution said the court has not allowed bail in relation to extradition, and should not be allowed unless it is a special situation.

Mr. Yoo is expected to deny the charges and assert the injustice of forced repatriation.
