Question is not worded very clearly. It sounds like the questioner was released for one charge, but is still being detained for a new, or different, charge. If that is the correct scenario, then he is being held legally. The original offense may have been disposed of, but he is NOW being held on a warrant issued for a new and completley different charge. He will be presented in court and arraigned on the new charge in due course. If the "hold" for extradition goes longer than 90 days file a writ of Habeus Corpus. Answer: Actually, the accused must be arraigned within 72 hours or released unless this right was waived. The only charge under US law for which there is no time limit for pre-arraignment detention is Terrorism.
