In Mississippi, there is no specific time period limit for extradition itself; however, the state must act within a reasonable time frame. The Uniform Criminal Extradition Act governs the process, allowing for the extradition of fugitives based on the issuance of a warrant. If a governor's warrant is not executed within a reasonable time or if the fugitive is not apprehended promptly, the extradition may be challenged. Generally, prompt action is encouraged to ensure the integrity of the process.

What is the extradition time limit to transfer from elko nv to clark county nv according to the sheriffs dept. there is no extradition time limit?

That is correct. As long as the legal process has been set in motion, "it takes, as long as it takes." That being said, if you are still incarcerated after 30-45 days file a Writ of Habeus Corpus to see where the process stands. ALSO - the term "extradition" does not apply to in-state holds. Extradition only applies to inter-state or inter-nation transfers.

What is the time limit for PA to detain a person for extradition?

Well i think they can only hold a person for 30 days. And if that other state has not came to get you then the jail that is holding you will let you go.Additional: CAUTION: Although there may be caselaw on this topic, after a quickie research I could find no statutory mention of a time limit for holding a prisoner held on a confirmed extradtion to another state. The only 30-day mention I could find was that the defendant has a 30 day time limit in which they may CHALLENGE the extradition by filing a Writ of Habeus Corpus.

What are you being "held" for? If you are going to be charged and arraigned the time limit is governed by constitutional law. If you are being helf for extradition, then there is no statutory time limit.... as long as the extraditing state is in the process of removing you.


How long can someone be held after sentence for extradition from Florida to Massachusetts?

If the person being held does not "waive" extradition it will take some timebecause the detaining state has to hold an extradition hearing to satisfy their law that the extradition is being done 'legally.' There ARE legal procedures 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. If the detainee "waives" extradition the process proceeds much more quickly.

Does your 30 day time limit for extradition start before or after you sign the papers for it?

There is no "minimum time limit for extradition." If the person is being held for extradition - once the process has begun it takes as long as it takes. It is nowhere near as easy as simply driving over the state line and picking them up. A formal inter-state legal and administrative process must be begun and followed in order to legally take custody of the defendant and remove them from one state to another. If you haven't heard anything in 30 days file a Writ of Habeus Corpus to determine where the process stands.

You signed extradition papers for Ct and was not picked up?

What is the timeframe since you signed the extradition papers? Extradition is not an immediate process (i.e.: it does not happen within 24-48 hours). Certain legal steps have to be taken between the states to 'lawfully' extradite you back to your home state. Once the process has been set in motion there is no statutory time limit, and it can take, as long as it takes. If you are held awaiting extradition for more than 90 days, file a writ of Habeus Corpus.


Scenario a guy moves to Texas and while gettting his Texas State I.D he is arrested for a warrant in Mississippi how long can or will Texas hold him for Mississippi to come extradite him back?

I was a professional bail bondsman for about five years in Mississippi. So even though I am not a lawyer and the advice that I am giving you is for entertainment purposes only, I have run into this situation several times. It depends on wether the warrant is for a felony or misdeamenor offense, the nature of the offense, and wether the law enforcement agency that wants him will bear the expense of coming to get him. They must also pay the Texas agency any expensess for housing him in the mean time. If it is a felony, he should have an extradition hearing, if he refuses to be extradited, the governor of Mississippi will have to get the governor of Texas will have sign an extradition writ. Most people do not fight extradition.
