Dutil v. Rice, 376 A.2d 1119 (Conn. Super. Ct. 1977). · cites it 2× “The defendant argues that this section authorizes the extradition of the plaintiff, and that the recitals in the Connecticut governor’s extradition warrant that she has received and is honoring a requisition for the return of a fugitive are mere surplusage and may be disregarded.”
Clark v. Comm'r of Corr., 868 A.2d 798 (Conn. App. Ct. 2005). · cites it 2× “In the absence of more persuasive Connecticut authority, we must decide this case as one of first impression. Because § 54-161 replicates a provision in a uniform statute, it is useful to look for guidance to courts in other jurisdictions that have interpreted § 5 of the act.”
