1. ““... [N]o showing of probable cause is necessary for the extradition of a person who has been convicted and sentenced .... Extradition is based not upon violation of the terms of his probation, but upon the substantive criminal offense for which the appellant has not yet completed his sentence. Under such circumstances, all that is required is a record of the conviction and a statement by the governor of the requisition state that the person sought has violated the terms of his-probation.” (Citations omitted).”
