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. C. Time Requirements Except as provided in Ohio Revised Code §2935 (which allows the court to withdraw a misdemeanor charge not served within two (2) years of the date of issue) warrants have no expiration date and, provided legal process was begun in a timely fashion as provided by Ohio Revised Code §2901 or provided process has been served, warrants may be served at any time or place as outlined in Ohio Revised Code and Ohio Criminal Rules of Procedure. D. Pick-up Radius Dispatchers will enter all Mayor’s Court and Municipal Court (Franklin and Licking counties) Warrants into the LEADS computer.

The pick-up radius is to be assigned in the following manner: All traffic and bench warrants will have a pick-up radius of Franklin/Licking County and adjacent (4).
