TITLE: Criminal requisitions registers
DATES: i 1881-1949.
ARRANGEMENT: Chronological.
DESCRIPTION: This register contains requisitions for extraditions which were formal requests issued by the governor of Utah to governors of other states for the return of fugitives accused of committing crimes in Utah. Requests for the extradition of fugitives originated at the local level, usually from county attorneys, district courts, justices of the peace, or police officials. They were often accompanied by court documents or correspondence. In response to the local level request, the governor's office issued the formal extradition document, a copy of which is recorded in this series. Information is recorded on standard forms. Each form specifies the crime committed, name of criminal, place where suspect might be found, and the name of the officer authorized to receive the fugitive.
