§ 2963.24.

Any person arrested in this state charged with having committed any crime in another

state or alleged to have escaped from confinement, or broken the terms of his bail,

probation, or parole may waive the issuance and service of the warrant provided for

in section 2963.07 of the Revised Code and all other procedure incidental to extradition proceedings, by executing or subscribing

in the presence of a judge of any court of record within this state, a writing which

states that he consents to return to the demanding state.  Before such waiver is executed or subscribed by such person the judge in open court

shall inform such person of his rights to the issuance and service of a warrant of

extradition and to obtain a writ of habeas corpus as provided for in section 2963.09 of the Revised Code . When such consent has been executed it shall forthwith be forwarded to the office

of the governor and filed therein.  The judge shall direct the officer having such person in custody to deliver forthwith

such person to the accredited agent of the demanding state, and shall deliver to such

agent a copy of such consent.  This section does not limit the rights of the accused person to return voluntarily

and without formality to the demanding state before any such demand has been made,

nor is this waiver procedure an exclusive procedure or a limitation on the powers,

rights, or duties of the officers of the demanding state or of this state.
