Canadian extradition proceedings will start Jan. 20 for Huawei Technologies Co. Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou, a Canadian judge said. The proceedings could be completed by October 2020.

The Chinese telecom executive is living under house arrest in Vancouver after being charged by U.S. prosecutors. Meng’s legal team plans to challenge the U.S. handover request, hoping to beat the odds by having a Canadian court throw out the case.
