If after a local criminal prosecution a fugitive defendant is sentenced to serve a term of imprisonment in a correctional facility or a county jail, the court shall vacate the fugitive proceedings and shall exonerate the fugitive bond. After the proceedings are vacated and the bond is exonerated, except for death penalty cases, sections 31-481 and 31-482 apply. If sections 31-481 and 31-482 do not apply, the fugitive matter is governed by any other applicable procedure for the rendition or extradition of fugitives, subject to section 13-3859. The defendant's fugitive status is not extinguished by the sentence of imprisonment.
