§ 2a:4-30.
Conditions of rendition. a. Before making a demand that the governor of another state surrender an individual
charged criminally in this State with having failed to provide for the support of
an obligee, the Governor of this State may require a prosecutor of this State to demonstrate
that at least 60 days previously the obligee had initiated proceedings for support
pursuant to this act or that the proceeding would be of no avail. b. If, under this act or a law substantially similar to this act, the governor of
another state makes a demand that the Governor of this State surrender an individual
charged criminally in that state with having failed to provide for the support of
a child or other individual to whom a duty of support is owed, the governor may require
a prosecutor to investigate the demand and report whether a proceeding for support
has been initiated or would be effective. If it appears that a proceeding would be effective but has not been initiated, the
governor may delay honoring the demand for a reasonable time to permit the initiation
of a proceeding. c. If a proceeding for support has been initiated and the individual whose rendition
is demanded prevails, the governor may decline to honor the demand. If the petitioner prevails and the individual whose rendition is demanded is subject
to a support order, the governor may decline to honor the demand if the individual
is complying with the support order.
