26-11A-10. Placement contracts regarding juveniles and other states--Transfer of custody--Effect on juvenile's legal rights. The Department of Corrections may contract and place juveniles with appropriate agencies or departments of other states. Juveniles under the jurisdiction of the Department of Corrections who are in the custody of an agency or department of another state may be removed therefrom for change of placement. Placement of a juvenile in another state does not deprive the child of any legal rights the juvenile would have if placed in this state.
