request to extradite Indian activist Dennis Banks in the late '70s; in 1932, the Governor of New Jersey refused Georgia's request to extradite Robert Elliott Burns - whose autobiography was made into the famous film "I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang" - but the Supreme Court took away this power in 1987, reversing an 1860 Supreme Court decision that permitted the Governor of Ohio to refuse Kentucky's request to extradite a free black man accused of aiding an escaped slave.
