Cal. Penal Code § 3404 — Prisoners is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

When there is any reasonable grounds to believe that a prisoner may be forcibly removed from the California Institution for Women, the warden shall report the fact to the Governor, who may order the removal of the prisoner to any California State prison for safekeeping, and it is hereby made the duty of the warden of the prison to accept and detain the prisoner for the further execution of her sentence. The Governor may thereafter order the prisoner returned to the California Institution for Women for the further execution of her sentence according to law.

The necessary costs and expenses incurred in carrying out the provisions of this section shall be a proper charge against any fund hereafter appropriated as an emergency fund, or similar appropriation for contingencies, notwithstanding any limitations or restrictions that may be imposed upon the expenditure of any appropriation.
