Absent very unusual and rare circumstances, a person in custody must be charged within 72 hours of their arrest. Other charges may be pending or discovered while that person is in custody. There may be a valid arrest warrant for someone already in custody, but the jurisdiction holding it may delay serving it and arresting someone until their other charges are dispensed with.
For example, John Doe may be in jail in State X after being arrested for burglary. State Y has an active arrest warrant for John, but they wait for State X to finish with John. Several years later, after John Doe has been convicted and has served his prison time in the State X Prison, cops from State Y show up at the prison gate as John is walking out. They arrest him on their warrant and bring him back to State Y, where he is tried on the charges pending there.
