Terms Used In Maine Revised Statutes Title 15 Sec. 2165

  • Arrest: Taking physical custody of a person by lawful authority.
  • Evidence: Information presented in testimony or in documents that is used to persuade the fact finder (judge or jury) to decide the case for one side or the other.
The Governor shall, upon receiving the notice provided for in section 2164, examine the case of such convict, and if it appears by his own admission or by evidence that he has violated the conditions of his pardon, the Governor shall order him to be remanded and confined for the unexpired term of the sentence. In computing the period of his confinement, the time between the pardon and the subsequent arrest shall not be reckoned as part of the term of his sentence. If it appears to the Governor that he has not broken the conditions of his pardon, he shall be discharged. [PL 1975, c. 771, §163 (AMD).]
