If the person being held does not "waive" extradition it will take longer because of the detaining state having to hold an extradition hearing to satisfy their law that the extradition is being done 'legally.' There ARE legal pprocedures that must be followed and adhered to (i.e.- filing of papers - court hearing - arranging transportation, etc, etc) A 'reasonable' length of time by the jurisdiction issuing the warrant is expected. However it will seldom be as short as 24 hours, or even a week, but it should not take up to months either. If the delay seems unreasonably long a writ demanding action, or release can be filed with the detaining jurisdiction.
