State Ex Rel. Clayton v. Wolke
Wisconsin Supreme Court
Decided June 30, 1975No. 651PublishedCited by 5 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtDay, J.
The question on this appeal is did the documents submitted by the governor of Louisiana for the extradition of Mr. Clayton sufficiently comply with the Uniform Criminal Extradition Act so that the governor of Wisconsin could recognize the demand for extradition. We conclude that such documents met the requirements of the act.
The second question is whether or not the documents submitted and the evidence produced at the habeas corpus hearing established that Mr. Clayton was the person sought in the extradition request. We conclude that the identity was sufficiently established.
