46-30-213 . Issuance of arrest warrant by governor.
(1)If the governor decides that the requisition should be complied with, the governor shall sign a warrant of arrest and rendition, which must be sealed with the state seal and be directed to any peace officer or other person whom the governor may think fit to entrust with the execution of the warrant. The warrant must substantially recite the facts necessary to the validity of its issuance.
(2)A copy or an abstract of the governor's warrant of arrest and rendition may be submitted electronically to the entity entrusted with the execution of the warrant for the purpose of expediting service of the warrant. The copy or abstract is as effectual in the hands of the entity as if the entity held the original governor's warrant of arrest and rendition.
