OPINION
STEWART, Judge.
The Governor of Montana asked the Governor of Alaska to issue a warrant for the arrest and extradition of Kevin T. Swarner to face felony charges in Montana. After the Governor of Alaska issued the warrant, Swarner filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in the superior court to contest his extradition. Superior Court Judge Charles K. Cranston denied Swarner’s petition and ordered that Swarner be held for the Montana authorities. Swarner appeals. Because we agree that Montana’s request is in proper form, we affirm the superior court.
