570.56 - Expense of extradition.
§ 570.56 Expense of extradition. The expenses of extradition must be borne by the county from which the application for a requisition comes or, where the application is made by the attorney general, by the county in which the offense was committed. In the case of extradition of a person who has been convicted of a crime in this state and has escaped from a state prison or reformatory, the expense of extradition shall be borne by the department of correctional services. Where a person has broken the terms of his parole from a state prison or reformatory, the expense of extradition shall be borne by the state division of parole. Where a person has broken the terms of his bail or probation, the expense of extradition shall be borne by the county. Where a person has been convicted but not yet confined to a prison, or has been sentenced for a felony to a county jail or penitentiary and escapes, the expenses of extradition shall be charged to the county from whose custody the escape is effected. Nothing in this section shall preclude a county, the department of correctional services or the state division of parole, as the case may be, from collecting the expenses involved in extradition from the person who was extradited.
