Once the process has begun there is no statutory limitation on the time it takes. It is a lengthy administrative and legal process to remove a wanted person from one state and return him to another. It takes.... as long as it takes. If you are still being held after the expiration of 30 days, file a Writ of Habeus Corpus to see where things stand.

What are the extradition laws between the states?

Basically the laws of every state with regard to extradition are the same: if a person is arrested in the state from the one that issued the warrant, the person is taken to the county jail of that jurisdiction and awaits extradition to the County seeking the person. Normally an extradition hearing is held to determine whether the individual is in fact the one that is being held for extradition. The individual can admit he is such person being sought (he is not admitting guilt) or challenge this. The state is seeking the person generally has up to two weeks to arrange for the defendant to be transferred, or the defendant can be released.
