  This paper investigates the syntax of extraposition in the HPSG framework. We
present English and German data (partly taken from corpora), and provide an
analysis using lexical rules and a nonlocal dependency. The condition for
binding this dependency is formulated relative to the antecedent of the
extraposed phrase, which entails that no fixed site for extraposition exists.
Our analysis accounts for the interaction of extraposition with fronting and
coordination, and predicts constraints on multiple extraposition.
