The process of one state seeking the return of a person from another state is technically not extradition- it is rendition. Authorities in one state request authorities in the other state to arrest and return the person to answer to criminal charges. Those authorities may hold a hearing to determine if this is the right person, and if they should be returned. If so, the person is detained until picked up, and taken to the first state. Extradition involves two separate countries.
