        "text": "OPINION\nRIORDAN, Justice.\nThe State seeks a writ of prohibition or superintending control to review the district court\u2019s granting of bail to Rod Hopper (Hopper) after he had been arrested on a governor\u2019s extradition warrant. We find that bail should not have been granted.\nThe issue on appeal is whether Hopper is entitled to bail after a governor\u2019s extradition warrant has been served.\nThe facts set forth in the writ of prohibition are as follows. Hopper is a fugitive from the State of Wisconsin, where he was charged with the crime of theft. On February 16, 1983, he was arrested in New Mexico on a warrant. \u00a7 31-4 \u2014 13, N.M.S.A.1978. On February 18, 1983, Hopper was released on a ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) bond. \u00a7 31-4-16, N.M.S.A.1978. On April 4,1983, Hopper was served with a governor's extradition warrant. \u00a7 31-4-7, N.M.S.A.1978. At that time, the State moved that Hopper be remanded to custody and be held without bond pending a hearing on a writ of habeas corpus which Hopper indicated he would file and pending his transportation to Wisconsin. The district court, however, ordered that Hopper continue to be released on bond.\nThe right of extradition is set forth in article IV, \u00a7 2, cl. 2 of the United States Constitution. Congress has implemented this constitutional provision in 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 3182 (1976). And, the State of New Mexico has adopted the Uniform Criminal Extradition Act (Act). \u00a7\u00a7 31 \u2014 4-1 through 31-4-31, N.M.S.A.1978 (Orig.Pamp. and Cum.Supp.1982).\nThe intent of the extradition clause to the United States Constitution is to enable each state to bring offenders to trial as swiftly as possible in the state where the alleged offense occurred. Bazaldua v. Hanrahan, 92 N.M. 596, 592 P.2d 512 (1979). The purpose of the clause is to prevent any state from becoming a sanctuary for fugitives from justice of another state. Id.\nUnder the Act, bail is allowed during the period before a governor\u2019s extradition warrant has been served. \u00a7 31-4-16. However, there is no provision for bail after an arrest on a governor\u2019s extradition warrant. Although New Mexico has not had occasion to interpret whether bail is accorded after a governor\u2019s extradition warrant, a number of states have decided this issue.\nThe majority rule is that there is no right to bail after an arrest on a governor\u2019s extradition warrant. State v. Jacobson, 22 Ariz.App. 260, 526 P.2d 784 (1974); Deas v. Weinshienk, 188 Colo. 17, 533 P.2d 496 (1975); Grano v. State, 257 A.2d 768 (Del. 1969); Buchanan v. State, 166 So.2d 596 (Fla.Dist.Ct.App.1964); State v. Second Judicial Dist. Ct., County of Washoe, 86 Nev. 531, 471 P.2d 224 (1970), cert. denied, 401 U.S. 910, 91 S.Ct. 874, 27 L.Ed.2d 809 (1971); State v. Pritchett, 12 Wash.App. 673, 530 P.2d 1348 (1975); see New Mexico\u2019s Att\u2019y Gen.Op., No. 74-38 (1974).\nA minority of the states allow bail to be set after an arrest on a governor\u2019s extradition warrant. Winnick v. Reilly, 100 Conn. 291, 123 A. 440 (1924); Application of Haney, 77 Idaho 166, 289 P.2d 945 (1955). However, we decline to follow the minority view and accept the majority view.\nThe rationale for accepting the majority view is that:\n[Bjecause the fugitive is being held for another state he should be readily available to be turned over to those who arrive to return him.\nDeas v. Weinshienk, supra, 188 Colo, at 19, 533 P.2d at 497. Also:\nDenial of bail pending extradition is based on the presumption that the detainee will be promptly extradited and provided his legal right to bail in the demanding state.\nMeechaicum v. Fountain, 696 F.2d 790, 792 (10th Cir.1983).\nTherefore, the writ of prohibition is granted and made permanent. The trial court is prohibited from allowing Hopper bail after a governor\u2019s extradition warrant has been served.\nIT IS SO ORDERED.\nPAYNE, C.J., and FEDERICI, J., concur.",
