against the defendant is filed in district
court before the date set for the pre-
liminary examination. With the consent of
the defendant and upon a showing of good
cause, taking into account the public
interest in the prompt disposition of
criminal cases, time limits specified in
this subdivision may be extended one or
more times by a federal magistrate. In
the absence of such consent by the de-
fendant, time limits may be extended by a
judge of the United States only upon a
showing that extraordinary circumstances
exist and that delay is indispensable to
the interests of justice.

Fed. R. Crim. Pro. 5. In addition, Rule 5.1 provides:

PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION

If

(a) Probable Cause of Finding. from the evidence it appears that there is probable cause to believe that an offense has been committed and that the defendant committed it, the federal magistrate shall forthwith hold him to answer in district court. The finding of probable cause may be based upon hearsay evidence in whole or in part. The defendant may cross-examine witnesses against him and may introduce evidence in his own behalf. Objections to evidence on the ground that it was acquired by unlawful means are not properly made at the preliminary examination. Motions to suppress must be made to the trial court as provided in Rule 12.

(b) Discharge of Defendant. If from the evidence it appears that there is no probable cause to believe that an offense has been committed or that the defendant committed it, the federal magistrate shall dismiss the complaint and discharge the defendant. The discharge of the defendant shall not preclude the government from instituting a subsequent prosecution for the same offense.

(c) Records. After concluding the proceeding the federal magistrate shall transmit forthwith to the clerk of the district court all papers in the proceeding. The magistrate shall promptly

make or cause to be made a record or
summary of such proceeding.

(1) On timely application to a

federal magistrate, the attorney for a
defendant in a criminal case may be given
the opportunity to have the recording of
the hearing on preliminary examination
made available for his information in
connection with any further hearing or in
connection with his preparation for trial.
The court may, by local rule, appoint the
place for an define the conditions under
which such opportunity may be afforded
counsel.

(2) On application of a defendant
addressed to the court or any judge
thereof, an order may issue that the
federal magistrate make available a copy
of the transcript, or of a portion
thereof, to defense counsel. Such order
shall provide for prepayment of costs of
such transcript by the defendant unless
the defendant makes a sufficient affidavit
that he is unable to pay or to give secur-
ity therefor, in which case the expense
shall be paid by the Director of the
Administrative Office of the United States
Courts from available appropriated funds.
Counsel for the government may move also
that a copy of the transcript, in whole or
in part, be made available to it, for good
cause shown, and an order may be entered
granting such motion in whole or in part,
on appropriate terms, except that the
government need not prepay costs nor
furnish security therefor.

Fed. R. Crim. Pro. 5.1. The analogy to Rule 5 was specifi-
cally recognized by the Senate and House Judiciary Committees.
See Senate Judiciary Report on S. 1940, supra note 15, at 8;
House Judiciary Report on H.R. 6046, supra note 23, at 16.

148. See McNabb v. United States, 318 U.S. 332 (1943); Mallory v. United States, 354 U.S. 449 (1954); Fed. R. Crim. P. 5. Title II of the Omnibus Crime Control Act and Safe Streets Act of 1968, 18 U.S.C. S 3501 (1976), purports to repeal the McNabb-Mallory rule; in light of Miranda v.

Arizona, 384 U.S..436 (1966), however, the constitutional effect of this repeal is questionable.

The Senate Judiciary Report noted that this subsection "is not intended to require the dismissal of the extradition proceedings solely on the ground that the fugitive arrested for extradition was taken without unnecessary delay before a judge or magistrate later determined not to be the 'nearest' one."

149. Probable cause for arrest in an extradition proceeding is required according to the statement in Collins v. Loisel, 259 U.S. 309 (1925), that the magistrate is to determine whether or not there is "competent legal evidence which, according to the law of [the state wherein the relator is found], would justify his apprehension and commitment for trial if the crime had been committed in that state." Id. at 315 (emphasis added).
