Gene W. Glenn, Ottumwa, for appellant.

Heard before MOORE, C. J., and LeGRAND, REES, UHLENHOPP and HARRIS, JJ.


LeGRAND, Justice.

This appeal seeks to reverse the trial court's order annulling a writ of habeas corpus by which plaintiff hopes to defeat the state of California's efforts to extradite him to face pending criminal charges there. The defendant is the sheriff of Wapello County, who took plaintiff into custody on a governor's warrant of arrest. On the scant record before us, we must reverse and order plaintiff discharged from custody.
