How long can someone be held after sentence for extradition from Florida to Massachusetts?

If the person being held does not "waive" extradition it will take some timebecause the detaining state has to hold an extradition hearing to satisfy their law that the extradition is being done 'legally.' There ARE legal procedures that must be followed and adhered to (i.e.- filing of papers - court hearing - arranging transportation, etc, etc) A 'reasonable' length of time by the jurisdiction issuing the warrant is expected. However it will seldom be as short as 24 hours, or even a week, but it should not take up to months either. If the delay seems unreasonably long a writ demanding action, or release can be filed with the detaining jurisdiction. If the detainee "waives" extradition the process proceeds much more quickly.

How long can Washington state hold someone in jail awaiting extradition to California on a California warrant?
The legal term "extradition" does not apply to intra-state transfers of wanted fugitives. Extradition applies only to those fugitives removed state-to-state. It sounds like you are being held for a plain old prisoner transfer.
Where can criminals live without expropriation?
Expropriation means to take someone else's property for yourself. Extradition, which is I believe what you're referring to, is the legal surrender of a fugitive to the jurisdiction of another state, country, or government for trial. Extradition is usually determined by an extradition treaty between two nations. In other words, whether one can or will be extradited depends on the nation seeking extradition and the nation in which the individual is residing. Specifically, I don't know of any countries that lack extradition treaties without extradition treaties, but even as such, a nation can surrender an individual on a case-by-case basis if they so choose.
