A fugitive warrant, as defined in this chap- ter, is a warrant issued by a state court of competent jurisdiction for the arrest of an individual. Normally, a state requesting delivery of a member from another state will issue a fugitive warrant to the state where the member is then located. Upon issuance of a fugitive warrant by the re- questing state to the state where the member is lo- cated, the latter state will normally request delivery of the member to local state authorities. Delivery to local state officials should be arranged by authorized Navy or Marine Corps officers subject to the conditions set forth in the JAGMAN and the following discussion. Upon receipt of a request for delivery of a mem- ber under fugitive warrant to state authorities, if the member voluntarily waives extradition, the provi- sions for the waiver of extradition apply. If the mem- ber is delivered to local authorities but refuses to waive extradition, he or she will have the opportunity to contest extradition in the courts of the state in which he or she is then located. No delivery of a member by Navy or Marine Corps officers pursuant to a fugitive warrant or waiver of extradition can be done without the comple- tion and execution of the delivery agreement required by the JAGMAN. The agreement is executed when (1) the authorities of both the requesting state and the state in which the member is located have signed it or (2) the authorities of the state in which the member is located have signed the agreement. This provision applies only if such authorities, on behalf of the re- questing state, accept full responsibility for returning the member to a command designated by the DON.

What is a fugitive bond?

A fugitive bond is really just like a normal bond. When one state has a warrant out for your arrest, that is entered into NCIC, and you are arrested in another state.....then the arresting state can post a bond for you, referred to as a fugitive bond. They basically give you a set number of days to head back to the State that issued the warrant and handle your business or they put you back in jail and revoke the 'fugitive bond'.


Will North Carolina extradite to California on warrant issued because you lied to HUD about your income when you lived in their HUD housing?

Forget about why the warrant was issued: whenever a warrant is issued for someone's arrest it remains as such until the charges are answered (i.e., the warrant is served). That warrant is entered into the National Criminal Information Computer, or NCIC. If law-enforcement sees that warrant it will make an arrest and hold the person in jail. Next there is the issue of whether the issuing state is willing to extradite. The arresting state doesn't do the extradition, the issuing state does. So if that state wants the fugitive it will arrange to pick the fugitive up, if the charges are serious enough. If the state is not willing to extradite then the fugitive is freed-- for now: at any time the warrant is in effect and has not been served, the fugitive will continue to be arrested until eventually he is brought to justice.
