performing the functions of governor or the executive authority of a state covered

by KRS 407.5101 to 407.5902.

(2) The governor of this state may:

(a) Demand that the governor of another state surrender an individual found in the

other state who is charged criminally in this state with having failed to provide

for the support of an obligee; or

(b) On the demand of the governor of another state, surrender an individual found

in this state who is charged criminally in the other state with having failed to

provide for the support of an obligee.

(3) A provision for extradition of individuals not inconsistent with KRS 407.5101 to

was not in the demanding state when the crime was allegedly committed and has

not fled from the demanding state.
