 RE: Interstate Agreement on Detainers

 In Cuyler v. Adams, 66 L.Ed.2d 641 (1981), the United States Supreme
 Court held that when a state requests an inmate through the Interstate
 Agreement on Detainers, the inmate has the right to a judicial hearing in
 which the inmate can bring a limited challenge to the receiving state's
 custody request. This decision does not apply to that inmate who
 requests disposition of an outstanding detainer and initiates a request
 for disposition of the pending charges.

 The attached forms should be completed and notarized to insure that
 subject is aware of his right to challenge his return to the requesting
 state through the filing of a Writ of Habeas Corpus.

 This form should be forwarded to the Department of Corrections to the
 attention of the Releases and Agreement Officer as soon as it is
 completed.

 Retention Schedule:

 Upon completion, a copy of this paperwork will be kept in the inmate case
 history file.
