Will Hernado County extradite for a misdemeanor?

Possibly, depending on the category of the misdemeanor, the distance where you are currently located, their financial situation, and your prior record.

Law enforcement in the district holding the active warrant is responsible for fees associated with extraditing you from the location where you've been picked up. When they are informed that you are in custody, the appropriate official will examine the totality of the case and consider whether or not it is a good use of their resources. If it is a minor misdemeanor and you are halfway across the country, they aren't going to pay to have you sent back. However, if it is a more serious misdemeanor and you are 20 miles away, they will.

Can a person be charged twice for the same crime-like you live in one state and committed the crime in another state-can both states charge you?

If you have not committed a crime in the state you live in, then no you can't be charged twice of the same offense. That would be double jepordy, and is against the law. Your home state CAN hold you until the state you committed the crime in either extradites you or drops the charges

Added: The above answer seems unclear.

If you committed a crime in state "A" and then committed the same crime in state "B" then BOTH states can charge you seperately, because you committed a separate crime in each state.

If you committed a crime only in state "A" but then fled to state "B," state "B" cannot try you for a crime you committed in another state. HOWEVER they can hold you in jail until state "A" comes for you to return you to state "A" for prosecution .

How long can KY hold for Extradition to il before they have to let you go?

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.

If you haven't heard anything in 30 days, file a Writ of Habeus Corpus to determine where the process currently stands.

How long before your let go in Kansas if county that issued warrant wont extradite?

Questioner is confused. Extradition only applies when retrieving prisoners from state to state. Extradition does NOT apply to in-state warrants. Since the same set of laws apply all over the state, he can be held under a valid in-state warrant with no further legal action required by the apprehending county. Are you sure that you're not being held for action on local charges? If the county that wants you hasn't sent someone to pick you up yet, file a Writ of Habeus Corpus.

Does probation time stop when a warrant is issued?

If a warrant is issued for a violation of probation then the clock stops until probation is either reinstated or revoked in open court.

No. Utah and the other 49 states within the United States of America tend to respect, and cooperate with, each other's extradition requests.

Can you get an annulment with children and still have your ex-spouse pay for court ordered child support and alimony?

Child support may be ordered any time there is an absent parent. Alimony or maintenance is almost always temporary - until the obligee can become self-sufficient.

Added: You can't have it both ways. You can speak with your church or religious leader about the possibility of the marriage being annulled in the eyes of the church, but (especially since there were children of the marriage) you cannot have it ruled, as a matter of law, that the marriage never occurred in the first place. The most you can hope for civilly is a divorce. HOWEVER - as the father of the children (either natural or adoptive), the father will be held responsible for contributing a certain amount to the support of the child(ren). Any alimony for the spouse would become a subject to be settled in the divorce action.
