As long as the state that wants you has indicated that they WILL extradite you, it can take as long as it takes. If you are still being held after 15 days, you should file a Writ of Habeus Corpus to determine the status of the extradition proceedings.

Any state or territory can legally extradite from any other state or territory for any offense. The question is - WILL THEY? It often hinges on the seriousness of the crime or the individual who is wanted. No one can know the answer to this question.

What are the extradition laws Texas extradition If you have a warrant in another county in Texas?

One county within the same state will honor another county's arrest warrant and hold you until they come to transport you back to the county that wants you. The actual legal act defined as "extradition" doesn't come into play in INTRAstate removals. Extradition only applies to INTERstate removals.

How long can Oklahoma hold your boyfriend on a felony charge before having to release him for extradition to Colorado?

If the person being held does not "waive" extradition it will take longer because of the detaining state having to hold an extradition hearing to satisfy their law that the extradition is being done 'legally.' There ARE legal pprocedures 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 more quickly.

ALL states and US possessions honor each other's extradition actions. However, for extradition to actually take place, certain legal obligations must be met and satisfied.

Scenario a guy moves to Texas and while gettting his Texas State I.D he is arrested for a warrant in Mississippi how long can or will Texas hold him for Mississippi to come extradite him back?

I was a professional bail bondsman for about five years in Mississippi. So even though I am not a lawyer and the advice that I am giving you is for entertainment purposes only, I have run into this situation several times. It depends on wether the warrant is for a felony or misdeamenor offense, the nature of the offense, and wether the law enforcement agency that wants him will bear the expense of coming to get him. They must also pay the Texas agency any expensess for housing him in the mean time. If it is a felony, he should have an extradition hearing, if he refuses to be extradited, the governor of Mississippi will have to get the governor of Texas will have sign an extradition writ. Most people do not fight extradition.
