12-65-03. Waiver of extradition

Authorized officers of a sending state may enter this state and apprehend and retake any

offender from the sending state who is present in this state pursuant to the compact for the

supervision of adult offenders. The sending state shall establish the authority of the officers and

the identity of the offender before the officers may retake the offender back to the sending state.

All legal requirements to obtain extradition of fugitives from justice are hereby expressly waived.

The decision of the sending state to retake an offender is conclusive upon and not reviewable

by this state. If the offender is alleged to have committed a criminal offense within this state, or if

there is any criminal charge pending against an offender in this state, and unless permission

has been obtained from the state's attorney in the county in which the criminal offense is alleged

to have occurred, the sending state may not retake the offender from this state until the offender

has been discharged from prosecution or released from imprisonment for the criminal offense.
