§ 24-60-209 — Probationers or parolees may be retaken

Duly constituted
officers of compacting states may at all times enter another compacting state and
there apprehend and retake any person on probation or parole or under suspended
sentence. For these purposes no formalities will be required other than establishing
the authority of the officer and the identity of the person to be retaken. All former
legal requirements to obtain extradition of a person on probation or parole or under
suspended sentence are hereby expressly waived. The decision of a compacting
state to retake a person on probation or parole or under suspended sentence shall
be conclusive upon and not reviewable by any other compacting state; but if, at the
time when a state seeks to retake a probationer or parolee or one under suspended
sentence, there is pending against him, within the other compacting state, any
criminal charge or he is suspected of having committed a criminal offense within
such state, he shall not be retaken without the consent of the other compacting
state until discharged from prosecution or from imprisonment for such offense.
