The US bid to extradite Megaupload founder Kim Dotcom has suffered a knock back.
A New Zealand judge has upheld a decision that the US Government must reveal the information it has gathered about Dotcom which forms the basis of its court case in the US against him.

Justice Winkelmann said any person sought by an overseas Government should be given sufficient information to allow them to argue their case.
She said the US characterisation of the case would result in a "Catch 22 situation" where without disclosure any threshold for extradition was likely to be met.
number of Dotcom's cars, which he said had lost half their value, should be put on the market to raise costs.
These could include his pink 1959 Cadillac convertible and 1957 Cadillac El Dorado.
