(a) Any person extradited to the State of Vermont on the basis of one or more criminal
offenses alleged to have been committed in the State of Vermont against whom all charges

due to insufficient evidence or by the court on the basis of the State’s failure to
establish a prima facie case, may be compensated for travel-related expenses necessary
to return to the place from which the person was extradited.
(b) The court shall hear the defendant’s request for travel-related expenses, as related
to subsection (a) of this section, as soon as possible after dismissal and may order
that such payment be made forthwith as the court in its discretion deems appropriate.
