Rush v. Baker

This is an appeal from the district courts order discharging a writ of habeas corpus. John Lloyd Rush, through habeas corpus proceedings, sought to avoid extradition to the State of Arizona. Rush was charged in Arizona with two felony counts of unlawfully issuing bogus checks with intent to defraud. The trial judge, at the time he discharged the writ of habeas corpus, had before him the grand jury indictment from Arizona, the arrest warrant, a notarized application for requisition, a demand for extradition by the Governor of Arizona, and the Colorado Governors warrant. We affirm.
