Description
It is the duty of the Governor ""to have arrested and deliver up to the executive authority of any other state of the United States any person charged in that state with treason, felony, or other crime, who has fled from Justice and is found in this state."" Laws 1937, c. 70, s. 1. The word ""crime"" as used in extradition statutes embraces every offense known to the law of the demanding state, including misdemeanors. Ex parte Reggel, 114 U. S. 642, 650. The grounds of the plaintiff's motions are entirely without merit. The requisition is accompanied by a duly authenticated indictment which substantially charges the commission of an offense against the laws of Pennsylvania. See State v. Clough, 71 N.H. 594, 605. The offense charged is a violation of the penal code of Pennsylvania relating to the establishment of a gambling place. See Laws, Pa., 1939, p. 916. There is an averment that the offense was committed in the jurisdiction of the Court of Quarter Sessions for the County of Delaware. An assistant district attorney for that county testified, subject to exception, that ""it is sufficient to charge in the indictment that the offense was committed in the county or in the jurisdiction of the court, the only exception being where the crime could be committed only in a particular municipality or part of the county.""
