What are the extradition laws for extradition from Texas to kansas?

Answer 1

Yes, if you are accused of a crime in Texas, going to Oklahoma will not protect you. You may be arrested by Oklahoma police, Texas police, or even US Federal Marshals.

However, Texas, and the US in general have very fair courts, so unless you committed a crime in Texas, you have nothing to worry about. If you did, find a good criminal defense lawyer for legal advice as soon as possible. If you can't afford a lawyer, Texas will hire one for you as soon as they catch you--and they're very good at it.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

All US states and territories honor each other's requests for extradition - there are no 'safe-haven' states - it is impossible to say 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 WILL extradite for felony offenses.

Answer 3

The same as any other state: the wanting state must be willing to extradite and arrange for your transfer to them. The arresting state can hold you up to two days pending an answer from the wanting state.

Answer 4

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.

Answer 5

As in the case of the other 48 states within the United States of America, Texas and Oklahoma tend to respect, and cooperate with, each other, and the other states, over extradition requests. For extradition requests tend to be over the serious, felony charges. But if Another Country becomes involved, then, as in the case of the other 48 states, Texas and Oklahoma leave the matter in the hands of the U.S. government. For it's always a federal issue once a country other than the U.S. is affected.
