  • RENDITION OF FUGITIVES FROM JUSTICE.

    Applications for requisitions upon the executive authority of another State for the delivery of, and return of any offender who has fled from the justice of this State, must be in writing and must come from County Attorneys and be accompanied by the following documents and proofs:

    1. Two duly attested copies of the indictment found against the offender; or, if no indictment has been found, two duly attesV~d copies of the complaint and warrant, together with affidavits to the facts constituting the offence charged.

    2. There must be in every case sworn evidence that the pernon charged is a fugitive from justice; that is, that he has fled from the State to avoid arrest. If there has been any former rcq uisi-tion for the same person, growing out of the same transaction, it must be so stated, with an explanation of the reasons for asking a requisition; and if the criminal is known to be under arrest for any other offence, this fact must appear. If the offence was not of recent occurrence, sufficient reasons must be given why the application has been delayed. No application will be granted unless the County Attorney shall state in writing that he believes there is sufficient evidence to convict the offender of the crime charged; and that the requisition is not asked to aid in collecting ~ debt or enforcing a civil remedy against a person who has left the State, but solely to aid in the administration of the criminal law.

    Requisitions will be mailed directly to tho Governor upon whom made, unless there be very special reasons for doing otherwise; but the authority of the agent appointed to receive the offender j will be sent to the County Attorney for delivery, who must see that the agent makPs return of it within a reasonable time to the Executive Department, with a statement of the manner in which his duty has been discharged.

    Mandates upon requisitions from other States will not be issued unless they are accompanied with documents, affidavits and state-ments conforming substantially to the foregoing regulations.

    Such mandates will be mailed directly to the Sheriff of the county where the criminal is supposed to be, and the officer will

  • r. PARDONS. be directed to allow the offender arrested a reasonable opportunity to assert any Jegal rights he may have in the premises.

    The proper expense of rendition of fugitives to this State will be audited by the Governor and Council, and paid from the State Treasury on receiving evidence that the agent has faithfully dis-charged his duty.

    The expense inc~rred in this State for the return to other States of fugitives from justice, will be paid by the agent of such States.

    PARDONS.

    A petition for pardon should be addressed to the Governor and Council. The Secretary of State will issue a notice fixing the time for the hearing by the Governor and Council, and forward the same to the petitioners, in order that they may have the same published two weeks at their own expe11se, in some newspaper published in the county where the convict was tried. The peti-tioners must also give written notice to the County A ttorrwy for the county where the case was tried, stating the pen
