Yes. As with the other 49 states within the United States of America, Florida cooperates with the other states over extradition requests. For the requests tend to be over the serious, felony charges. But, as with the other 49 states, Florida leaves the matter in the hands of the United States government once another country becomes involved. For the involvement of a country other than the U.S. is always a federal concern.

Florida is known to be pretty relentless in their prosecution of felons. However, it is impossible to state with certainty whether they will choose to extradite you or not, there are simply too many variables. It may depend on the offense and the seriousness of it and/or how badly they want you returned - most states WILLextradite for felony offenses.

If your out of state don't worry about it on a misdemeanor, or even if your several counties away. Felonies are the ones you will have to worry about. Because the department in which the warrant was put out will have to spend money to come get you and lose man power.

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 or not, there are simply too many variables. It may depend on the offense and the seriousness of it and/or how badly they want you returned - most states WILLextradite for felony offenses.

Realistically, in the budget crunch that all states are undergoing these days, they MAY not want to bother with bringing you back for misdemeanor offense - HOWEVER - that being said - it cannot be 100% counted on to save you. 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.

Unable to answer the question with a defiinite answer. Any state can extradite from any other state for any offense - IF - they want you badly enough. If the probation was for a felony offense, the odds are better than even that they will. Florida does NOT treat felony offenses lightly.

It can depend greatly on exactly what the original felony offense was. That being said - most states WILL extradite to prosecute felony offenses.

Can you board a plane to fly in a state that you have no current warrants in yet still have warrants in another state?

Warrants are warrants. They do not "go away" just because you move or travel to another state. If the warrants are entered in the national criminal database and/or the originating jurisdiction indicates that they will extradite you, you cannot get away from them. If the airline checks your name against a database of wanted or suspect persons (more and more common these days), your name MAY generate a 'hit,' which could result in your being taken into custody by the airport police to be held for extradition.

Some warrants are treated differently than other warrants. Some are just valid in a few surrounding counties and some are nationwide. They might be able to see it, but they probably won't arrest and extradite for a misdemeanor warrant.
