House Bill 535 revises the Uniform Criminal Extradition Act in Montana by updating definitions, terminology, and procedures related to extradition. Notable changes include the replacement of "demand" with "requisition" and the introduction of a requirement for courts to release individuals with a prior waiver of extradition to the authorized agent of another state without needing a governor's warrant, contingent upon a hearing that confirms the person's identity and probable cause for the charges. The bill also establishes a process for individuals to contest their extradition through a writ of habeas corpus, ensuring they are informed of their rights during this process.

Furthermore, the bill modifies the custody procedures for requisitioned individuals, specifying time limits for commitment and bail, and clarifying the approval process for transport costs related to extradition. It also revises the requisition process by mandating detailed applications from prosecuting attorneys and imposes restrictions on compensation for public officers involved in extradition. Overall, the bill aims to streamline and clarify the extradition process while safeguarding the rights of individuals involved.
