When, pursuant to California law, a California correctional officer has in the officer’s custody in Nevada a prisoner of the State of California, the correctional officer may maintain custody of the prisoner in Nevada and retake the prisoner if the prisoner should escape in Nevada, to the same extent as if the correctional officer were a peace officer appointed under Nevada law and the prisoner had been committed to the officer’s custody in proceedings under Nevada law.
