PART 884_DELIVERY OF PERSONNEL TO UNITED STATES CIVILIAN AUTHORITIES 
FOR TRIAL--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 884.15  Procedures involving a request by Federal or state 

authorities for custody of an overseas civilian employee or a 
command-sponsored family member.

    (a) The procedures of this section apply to civilian employees, 
including nonappropriated fund instrumentality (NAFI) employees, who are 
assigned outside the United States, and to command-sponsored family 
members residing outside the United States.
    (b) This section applies only when Air Force authorities receive a 
request for assistance from Federal, state, or local authorities 
involving noncompliance with a court order and when noncompliance is the 
subject of any of the following: An arrest warrant; indictment, 
information, or other document used in the jurisdiction to prefer 
charges; or a contempt citation involving the unlawful or contemptuous 
removal of a child from the jurisdiction of the court or the lawful 
custody of a parent or third party.
    (c) To the maximum extent possible, consistent with provisions of 
international agreements and foreign court orders, DoD and military 
department investigations, and judicial proceedings, commanders comply 
with requests for assistance. After exhausting all reasonable efforts to 
resolve the matter without the employee or family member returning to 
the United States, the commander shall strongly encourage the individual 
to comply. The commander shall consider imposing disciplinary action 
(including removal) against the employee or withdrawing command 
sponsorship of the family member, as appropriate, for failure to comply.
