A Canadian court ruled against the chief financial officer of Huawei Technologies Co. Wednesday in a decision that will continue proceedings seeking to hand her over to the United States to face criminal charges.

The decision on the so-called "double criminality" means Meng’s case meets a key threshold of Canada’s extradition law.
The ruling does not mean that Meng will be extradited to the U.S.
