LAWS OF MARYLAND

Ch. 21

AVAILABLE INFORMATION WHICH MAY BE OF VALUE TO AND ASSIST
THE RECEIVING STATE IN SUPERVISING A PROBATIONER OR PAROLEE
UNDER THIS COMPACT. A RECEIVING STATE, IN ITS DISCRETION,
MAY AGREE TO ACCEPT SUPERVISION OF A PROBATIONER OR PAROLEE
IN CASES WHERE THE PARENT, GUARDIAN OR PERSON ENTITLED TO
THE LEGAL CUSTODY OF THE DELINQUENT JUVENILE IS NOT A
RESIDENT OF THE RECEIVING STATE, AND IF SO ACCEPTED THE
SENDING STATE MAY TRANSFER SUPERVISION ACCORDINGLY.

(B)  THAT EACH RECEIVING STATE WILL ASSUME THE DUTIES
OF VISITATION AND OF SUPERVISION OVER ANY SUCH DELINQUENT
JUVENILE AND IN THE EXERCISE OF THOSE DUTIES WILL BE
GOVERNED BY THE SAME STANDARDS OF VISITATION AND SUPERVISION
THAT PREVAIL FOR ITS OWN DELINQUENT JUVENILES RELEASED ON
PROBATION OR PAROLE.

(C)  THAT, AFTER CONSULTATION BETWEEN THE APPROPRIATE
AUTHORITIES OF THE SENDING STATE AND OF THE RECEIVING STATE
AS TO THE DESIRABILITY AND NECESSITY OF RETURNING SUCH A
DELINQUENT JUVENILE, THE DULY ACCREDITED OFFICERS OF A
SENDING STATE MAY ENTER A RECEIVING STATE AND THERE
APPREHEND AND RETAKE ANY SUCH DELINQUENT JUVENILE ON
PROBATION OR PAROLE. FOR THAT PURPOSE, NO FORMALITIES WILL
BE REQUIRED, OTHER THAN ESTABLISHING THE AUTHORITY OF THE
OFFICER AND THE IDENTITY OF THE DELINQUENT JUVENILE TO BE
RETAKEN AND RETURNED. THE DECISION OF THE SENDING STATE TO
RETAKE A. DELINQUENT JUVENILE ON PROBATION OR PAROLE SHALL BE
CONCLUSIVE UPON AND NOT REVIEWABLE WITHIN THE RECEIVING
STATE, BUT IF, AT THE TIME THE SENDING STATE SEEKS TO RETAKE
A DELINQUENT JUVENILE ON PROBATION OR PAROLE, THERE IS
PENDING AGAINST HIM WITHIN THE RECEIVING STATE ANY CRIMINAL
CHARGE OR ANY PROCEEDING TO HAVE HIM ADJUDICATED A
DELINQUENT JUVENILE FOR ANY ACT COMMITTED IN SUCH STATE OR
IF HE IS SUSPECTED OF HAVING COMMITTED WITHIN SUCH STATE A
CRIMINAL OFFENSE OR ANY ACT OF JUVENILE DELINQUENCY, HE
SHALL NOT BE RETURNED WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE RECEIVING
STATE UNTIL DISCHARGED FROM PROSECUTION OR OTHER FORM OF
PROCEEDING, IMPRISONMENT, DETENTION OR SUPERVISION FOR SUCH
OFFENSE OR JUVENILE DELINQUENCY. THE DULY ACCREDITED
OFFICERS OF THE SENDING STATE SHALL BE PERMITTED TO
TRANSPORT DELINQUENT JUVENILES BEING SO RETURNED THROUGH ANY
AND ALL STATES PARTY TO THIS COMPACT, WITHOUT INTERFERENCE.

(D)   THAT THE SENDING STATE SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE UNDER
THIS ARTICLE FOR PAYING THE COSTS OF TRANSPORTING ANY
DELINQUENT JUVENILE TO THE RECEIVING STATE OR OF RETURNING
ANY DELINQUENT JUVENILE TO THE SENDING STATE.

ARTICLE VIII--RESPONSIBILITY FOR COSTS

(A) THAT THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLES IV (B), V (B) AND
VII (D) OF THIS COMPACT SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED TO ALTER OR
AFFECT ANY INTERNAL RELATIONSHIP AMONG THE DEPARTMENTS,
AGENCIES AND OFFICERS OF AND IN THE GOVERNMENT OF A PARTY
STATE, OR BETWEEN A PARTY STATE AND ITS SUBDIVISIONS, AS TO
THE PAYMENT OF COSTS, OR RESPONSIBILITIES THEREFOR.
