Iowa does not extradite for misdemeanor warrants as a general rule of thumb UNLESS the Judge Orders it. If you Google "Iowa Courts" you will be able to find the Iowa Courts Website and find out whether or not your charge is extraditable. They have their records online and you can search your names. Under the "Disposition" or "Bonds" it will say "Extradition" and if it says "Y" they are looking to extradite you and if there is a "N" then they aren't seeking it. Most states don't bother to extradite misdemeanors, so don't listen to blow holes who tell you to freak out over a simple charge. Felonies are different, almost all states extradite.
Depends on the court.
Yes. And you are likely to pick up the cost of transportation.
will Nevada (Reno) extradite from Iowa for a petty theft/larceny valued at less than $50
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.
Yes
Yes.
Misdemeanor
I don't know about Washington state, but in Iowa if you are on probation - even for a misdemeanor - you would have signed a document prior to being granted probation which would state that you automatically agree to waive extradition if you should ever become a fugitive. What that means is, if Washington state is like Iowa, then there will be nothing in the way to stop them from coming to get you. You can't fight extradition whatsoever.There was a case in Iowa recently over a football player who was convicted of credit card fraud, an aggravated misdemeanor, was put on probation and fled to Michigan. Because he had waived extradition when he signed up for probation in the first place, he was quickly taken back from Michigan to Iowa. Lucky for him he was given time served when he arrived back in Iowa.---------------ANOTHER VIEW: From the wording of the question it appears that you are STILL IN WA state. If you were convicted in a WA state court of a violation of WA state laws, you do not have to be 'extradited' at all. Extradition only applies to returnees from one state to another state. Prisoner transfers WITHIN a state are rather routinely done. The only thing that has to be done is to have them send a deputy for you to bring you back to the county where you were convicted. Whether they will bother to do it or not, is an unknown.
A misdemeanor conviction can potentially prevent you from obtaining a handgun in Iowa. The specific impact would depend on the nature of the misdemeanor offense and whether it is considered a disqualifying factor under Iowa law. It is recommended to consult with an attorney or legal professional to fully understand the implications of your misdemeanor conviction on your ability to obtain a handgun in Iowa.
There are 49 Washington Townships in Iowa, 1 in a different county. There are also 99 counties in Iowa.
If you are in Minnesota, Iowa, or Illinois the chances are pretty good. If you are in Alaska, or Florida, less so. What you should be worried about is the status of your drivers license. It is, no doubt, suspended or revoked at this time. If WI entered a warrant into the system for you - when you go to renew it or apply for a replacement, and they run your name, guess what's going to happen.
