§ 19.2-112. Costs and expenses of extradition.

A. The expenses incident to the extradition of any person under the four preceding sections shall may be paid out of the state treasury, on warrants of the Comptroller issued upon vouchers signed by the Governor, or such other person as may be designated by him for such purpose.

B. If the person extradited is found to be guilty, or if the person was extradited after illegally leaving the Commonwealth while on parole or on probation, the person extradited, and not the Commonwealth, shall be responsible for the costs and expenses of extradition. The state treasury shall continue to reimburse local jurisdictions for the costs and expenses of extradition. The fugitive shall pay the costs and expenses of his extradition into the state treasury. [ The Commonwealth shall use the saved expenses on other law-enforcement activities.

C. Whenever persons are placed on parole or probation and are prohibited from leaving the Commonwealth, they shall be notified that if they leave the Commonwealth and money is expended to bring them back to Virginia, they will be responsible for those costs and expenses. ]
