Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
Escape or attempt to escape from custody, whether within or without this state, while in the 
temporary custody of an authority of another state acting pursuant to the agreement on 
detainers constitutes an offense against the laws of this state. Such escape or attempt to 
escape constitutes an offense to the same extent and degree as an escape from the institution 
in which the prisoner was confined immediately prior to having been released to temporary 
custody, and is punishable in the same manner as an escape or attempt to escape from said 
institution.
