Extradition is the surrender of a prisoner or fugitive by one state, nation, or legal authority to another.

If a person commits a crime in one state, and then goes to a different one, where they are caught, they can be sent back to face charges in the state where the crime was committed. Conflicts can occur if the criminal faces charges in both states, or in several.

Each state has laws that deal with extraditing suspects, and many international laws deal with the process. Some countries will not extradite for certain crimes, or may limit the countries to which suspects may be extradited.
