SRC-CDH S.B. 1332 75(R) BILL ANALYSIS Senate Research Center S.B. 1332 By: Fraser Criminal Justice 3-26-97 As Filed DIGEST Currently, papers regarding the requisition for the return of a person charged with a crime are filed with the Secretary of State's Office. However, the Governor's Office handles this process and maintains these records. This legislation requires those papers to be filed with the Governor's Office, rather than the Secretary of State's Office, in an effort to change the statute to comply with standard practice. PURPOSE As proposed, S.B. 1332 establishes the requisition for the return of a person charged with crime in this state.
