State v. Barriga
State v. Barriga, 2025 UT App 162 (Harris, J.)
Criminal
The Utah Court of Appeals held:
- A generally-issued arrest warrant which was not specifically delivered to the custodial federal agency, did not qualify as a “detainer” for purposes of the Interstate Agreement on Detainers (IAD) and did not trigger IAD’s protections.
- A detainer lodged by the Utah Board of Pardons and Parole based on an alleged parole violation due to the new charges did not qualify as a detainer under IAD because it was not based on an untried indictment, information, or complaint.
