8.2.5.230 Waiver of Extradition

Any person arrested in the jurisdiction of this pueblo charged with having committed any crime in another jurisdiction or alleged to have escaped from confinement or broken terms of his bail, probation or parole, may waive issuance and service of the warrant provided for and all other procedure incidental to extradition proceedings by executing or subscribing in the presence of any tribal court a writing which states he consents to return to the demanding jurisdiction; provided, however, that before such waiver shall be executed or subscribed by such person it shall be the duty of such Judge to inform such person of his rights to the issuance and service of a warrant of extradition and to obtain a writ habeas corpus.

If and when such consent has been duly executed, it shall forthwith be forwarded to the Office of the Governor and filed therein. The Judge shall direct the Law Enforcement Officer of having such person in custody to deliver forthwith such person to the duly accredited agent or agents of the demanding jurisdiction, and shall deliver or cause to be delivered to such agent or agents a copy of such consent: Provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall be deemed to limit the rights of the accused person to return voluntarily and without formality to the demanding jurisdiction nor shall this waiver procedure be deemed to be an exclusive procedure or to limit the powers, rights or duties of the officers of the demanding jurisdiction or this Pueblo.
