NEW ALBANY POLICE DEPARTMENT - New Albany, Ohio

If the arrest is for a misdemeanor offense:
The arrestee will be transported to the Police Department where an inquiry will be
made as to whether bond can be taken on behalf of the issuing agency.
If bond can be taken, a U-10-100 will still be completed. The arrestee will then be
taken to the New Albany Clerk of Court’s Office for payment of the other agency
bond. If the Clerk of Court’s Office is closed, a Dispatcher will take the bond and
provide the arrestee with a receipt and appearance information on the prescribed
bond form utilizing the address for the court with jurisdiction over the charge.
If bond cannot be taken for the offense and the agency wishes to extradite the
arrestee to their jurisdiction, a supervisor or his/her designee will read the prescribed
Waiver of Extradition Form (PD-00-218) (see Addendum A) and explain the options
of waiving extradition or exercising the right to a local hearing.
If the arrestee waives his/her right to a hearing in Franklin or Licking County (as
appropriate), the arrestee must sign the waiver of extradition. The appropriate
jurisdiction will be notified by the on duty supervisor (or his/her designee). A LEADS
teletype will also be sent by the Dispatcher. The responding agency will be given six
hours to arrive to take possession of the prisoner. If the agency cannot arrive within
six hours, the prisoner will be transported to the appropriate (Franklin or Licking)
County Jail to await the arrival of the responding agency. The Waiver of Extradition
will be forwarded with the prisoner and a copy retained for the Police Department
files.
If the arrestee does not waive extradition, a U-10-100 is prepared and the prisoner
transported to the appropriate (Franklin or Licking) County Jail for a pending
extradition hearing before the appropriate (Franklin or Licking) County Municipal
Court. A Dispatcher will send a LEADS teletype notifying the originating agency of
the prisoner’s disposition.
If the arrest is a result of an out of state warrant, the prisoner will be brought to the
Police Department after the warrant has been verified and a LEADS teletype sent to
the originating agency. If the requesting State desires extradition proceedings, the
prisoner will be transported to the appropriate (Franklin or Licking) County Jail with a
completed U-10-100 pending the approval of a Governor’s Warrant.

Except as provided in Ohio Revised Code §2935 (which allows the court to withdraw a

counties) Warrants into the LEADS computer. All warrants will be assigned a pick-up
