Once you've been apprehended and GA has notified MD that you are in custody and MD begins the process of extradition, it can take as long as it takes. Once the process is in motion there are no statutory time limits on how long it can take. If the arrestee fights extradition it can take even longer. It is by no means a quick process since it requires court filings and legal maneuvers between the two states in order to transfer you back legally - certainly longer than a day or two, or three or four. If you are held for more than 90 days you can file a Writ of Habeus Corpus to determine what's taking so long.

For as long as the legal process of extradition from state to state takes. The detainee can speed this process up by 'waiving' extradition. Otherwise there are time consuming legal steps that must be taken in order for the laws of both states to be satisfied that the detainee is being extraditied according to law. Once GA has confirmed that they DO want you, you will remain in jail until the administrative legal procedures of extradition are completed. If you are still being held after 15 days file a Writ of Habeus Corpus.

There is no statutory time limit on this period of time. It can take, as long as it takes for the administrative and legal processes necessary to move a prisoner from state.

How long can Oakland county jail mi hold an inmate for extradition to another state Indiana?

They can hold them as long as they need to for the state of Indiana to pick them up. Unfortunately in this type of situation you are at the mercy of both states - Oakland could release them and have Indiana issue a warrant for their arrest or hold them for extradition as long as they want. The crimes are probably pretty serious if Indiana is willing to come pick you up for extradition so it probably won't take long (not more than a month).
