It depends on the charge and location where you are now and where the state that the warrant was issued. Some charges, if pulled over, etc in one state... and they run your license and it pulls up the warrant, they would go ahead and arrest you, but they then would contact the agency that issued the warrant. It then depends if that state "wanted" you or if they were not going to pursue the matter (i.e. cost them more to extradite/have a hearing than original charge). This isn't likely, but sometimes they do not worry about extradition. Either way, once arrested, the agency issuing the warrant must pick you up within 30 days, or you will be released. It all depends on the charge, whether it was state or federal (federal... automatic extradition), and the state which crime occurred and your current state. More information is at 18 U.S.C. § 3182.

All states will extradite for serious offenses such as murder. The state will sometimes want to pursue their own charges first though, then the person will be tried in the other state. A perfect example was the sniper suspects on the east coast a few years ago. They were tried in one state then extradited to several others where they were also charged. Once they serve their sentence for one state they will serve that of the other states.The U.S. has strict laws that require this. A state probably won't extradite for anything unless it is serious. A traffic ticket for instance will not allow for extradition.

RCW 10.34.030

Escape - Retaking in foreign state - Extradition agents.

The governor may appoint agents to make a demand upon the executive authority of any state or territory for the surrender of any fugitive from justice, or any other person charged with a felony or any other crime in this state. Whenever an application shall be made to the governor for the appointment of an agent he may require the official submitting the same to provide whatever information is necessary prior to approval of the application.

[1993 c 442 § 1; 1967 c 91 § 2; 1891 c 28 § 98; Code 1881 § 971; 1873 p 217 § 157; 1854 p 102 § 5; RRS § 2241.]

Notes:

Effective date -- 1993 c 442: "This act is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, or support of the state government and its existing public institutions, and shall take effect July 1, 1993." [1993 c 442 § 2.]

* I am in the process of finding out who or what credentials the 'official' needs to be or have. The prosecuting attorney assigned to my case of Assault and Domestic Violence is not being very cooperative in helping me, even though I know Exactly where he lives in California, which is backed up by his only 2 friends (one that was hiding him and another) telling the Sheriffs who went to their homes, separately and simultaneously. Both explained that he had moved to his "mother's house in California (I have the address) to get his debts paid". There is currently a warrant for his arrest and he has a bail amount of $500,000.00. He continues to keep a death threat directed to myself and a witness who wrote a statement. If you are able to find the Official before me (time is of essence), please post your answer here. Thank you.*

When a criminal is found in another state, the demanding state requests extradition, and a return to the state in which the crime was committed. If the person fights extradition, the process goes through the court, and generally takes between 1 and 3 months.

All US states and territories honor each other's requests for extradition - there are no 'safe-haven' states - It is impossible to know with certainty whether a particular state will choose to extradite you for a particular offense, or not, there are simply too many variables. It may depend, in part, on the offense and the seriousness of it, and/or how badly they want you returned - most states WILL extradite for felony offenses.

There is no such thing as "extradition" between counties of the same state. They simply hold you until the other county comes to pick you up.

Can Georgia extradite from Colorado?

In the United States, The State of Georgia can request extradition of an individual from The State of Colorado. It will usually happen. Any state can request the extradition of an individual from any other state. Extradition is almost never turned down. It has happened. One state refused to extradite a person because the specific action was not a crime in that particular state. Another state refused to extradite an adopted child because the adoption was legal in that state even though a technicality had suddenly made it illegal in the other state. If it is a situation like robbery, etc. Extradition is likely.
