There are constitutional protections in place that protect a prisoner from being held in jail for too long without going before a judge. One of these is the right to a speedy trial.
Replace the word informed with "charged". It varies on a state-by-state basis.
Because of Habeus Corpus, a person cannot be held in jail without a reason.
for life
Conviction in the legal sense would mean that the person has alread been found guilty. But a suspect can be held for about 48 hours without being charged with a crime. If there is not enough evidence or for whatever reason charges are not filed then the suspect must be released. In addition, a suspect may be held in jail without being convicted if he cannot make bail or if the ability to be released on bail is denied.
yes as long as the key is off
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.
