'Extradition' is a term describing the legal process by which a wanted individual is removed from the apprehending jurisdiction to face legal action for offenses he committed in another jurisdiction. (i.e.- you commit an offense in Texas but are arrested by Oklahoma - you are held in custody in Oklahoma until you either 'waive extradition' and voluntarily agree to return to Texas, or are held until Texas files extradition proceedings against you in Oklahoma's court system.)
