CHIEF Magistrate, Judy Latchman, rejected another attempt by the Mohameds lawyers to stall the extradition proceedings, noting that her court is bound by the appeal order.
The Mohameds lawyers had asked Chief Magistrate Latchman to stay her hand until they obtain clarification from the Court of Appeal.
However, she maintained that the order is clear and the proceedings must continue.
The prosecution has since called its second witness, Senior Superintendent Prem Narine to the stand.
The appeal order allows the extradition proceedings to continue but prevents Latchman from making a final ruling in the matter.
The issue stems from a constitutional challenge to provisions of the Fugitive Offenders Act currently before the Court of Appeal.
The defence had claimed that the constitutional proceedings have implications for the extradition case.
Forde and his colleagues said they intend to write the Court of Appeal seeking clarity and directions on the scope and implications of its order.
The United States is seeking the extradition of the Mohameds to face federal charges linked to an alleged US$50 million gold export and tax evasion scheme.
US prosecutors allege that the men used falsified customs declarations and reused government export seals to conceal the quantity and value of gold exported from Guyana and evade taxes and royalties.
