Section 15-9-44

Arrest without warrant - Failure to arrest accused on Governor's warrant within time specified.

If the accused is not arrested under warrant of the Governor by the expiration of the time specified in the warrant, bond or undertaking, the district or circuit court judge may discharge him, may recommit him to a further day or may again take bail for his appearance and surrender, as provided in Section 15-9-43. At the expiration of the second period of commitment, or if he has been bailed and appeared according to the terms of his bond or undertaking, the judge may either discharge him or may require him to enter into a new bond or undertaking to appear and surrender himself at another day.
