Can a class B misdemeanor marijuana charge without any arrest be transferred to another state in any way or can extradition be requested?

I'm not aware of any states extraditing for a misdemeanor, but the misdemeanor warrant will remain active until the individual is arrested, therefore, if you go back to the state where there is a warrant, you are subject to being arrested.


When the police book you in after they arrest you without a warrant can they charge you with a crime before they get a warrant in the state of Texas?

A warrant is an order for an arrest issued by the court. But many arrests do not need a warrant. If you punch someone in the face, and police are called, you will be arrested without a warrant, and one will not be needed. If say, you failed to show up in court, then a warrant for your arrest will be issued, to alert all officers that you should be arrested on sight. So the warrant itself is not the thing 'allowing' you to be arrested.


Can you be arrested in Las Vegas NV for a bench warrant in tx?

Yes, but it's not likely that you will be. If the local police run your name, they will probably only be checking the state records. However, you should get the warrant taken care of as soon as possible. Call an attorney.You absolutely can be arrested and contrary to the answer above you will be arrested if the charge is a felony. They will then call Texas and ask them if they want you. If they do want you then Las Vegas will hold you until they come an pick you up. If it's not a serious charge they likely will not want to come all that way to pick you up. They definitely will not arrest you if the charge is a misdemeanor. They will just inform you that you have a warrant and let you go. No state will cross their own state lines to pick someone up for a misdemeanor. The warrant has to be for a felony.


Can you be arrested in one county for a misdemeanor charge in another?

If there was an outstanding warrant on the charge, yes. Also, in some jurisdictions there are, what is called "Probable Cause Misdemeanors" (i.e.- altho they are classified as misdemeanor offenses, they are of such a high or aggravated nature that law enforcement can arrest a perpetrator even after the event and/or the perpetrator has fled the scene).


If a warrant is issued and the case was dropped from a felony to a misdemeanor is it a misdemeanor warrant?

If you were charged with a felony - appeared in court - the charge was reduced from a felony offense to a misdemeanor offense - and then you skipped out and it has been necessary to issue a warrant for your arrest; It means that by fleeing you failed to complete your part of the 'legal' bargain and the felony charge would quite likely be re-instituted and you could now be a fugitive felon.


What is a fugitive from justice without a warrant charge?

This is not stating the type of charge he/she has, this just means that the person was detained and arrested because there is an active warrant out for the person outside of the state that they were arrested in. Here is an example of your question. A man owes child support in Michigan, failed to make payments, and now there is a warrant out for him. He no longer lives in Michigan and moved to Tennessee. He got pulled over for speeding in Tennessee and the police officer checked to see if there were any warrants, and there was a warrant issued from Michigan for failure to pay child support. So, the Tennessee Officer arrested him, and the reason for his arrest was "fugitive from justice without a warrant."
