Is an Idaho Only or Extradite Idaho Only bench warrant really what it sounds like?
My "friend" has a bench warrant in Idaho for a felony probation violation. On the state issued, mailed copy of the warrant paperwork, it reads "Idaho Only" or "Extradite Idaho Only" (something to that effect, my apologies, I only caught a glimpse of it). Does this really mean that if she moves to a southern state (Mississippi, Alabama or Georgia) that even if she got stopped for a traffic violation or somehow attracted the attention of the police, that Idaho wouldn't waste the money to extradite her from there back? And also, will she be able to get a driver's license issued in her new resident state?

One factor (for felony probation) is whether you owe significant fines on the case
still. $$$ is a MAJOR determining factor....
Your "friend" is in BIG trouble. Felon in Possession of a Firearm is a FEDERAL charge and if he is a fugitive from Oregon, both Oregon AND the feds want him, and there is very little doubt that he is in the interstate criminal system.
CAUTION TO YOU: YOU too can become involved if you knowingly harbor a fugitive felon, and/or it can be proven that you know of his whereabouts and failed to inform law enforcement.
There's no way of answering this. If you were on probation for a felony offense and it was revoked and they want to send you to jail, then your violation must have been pretty serious. As far as Indiana is concerned, if you SHOULD be in jail but aren't, that means that you are considered to be a fugitve (maybe even an escapee) wanted for a felony crime. If IN entered your name into the interstate computer system I would say that the odds are probably pretty good that you would be extradited back to serve your sentence.

added: all i know is one of my friends was on probation in Massachusetts and he moved back to Oklahoma. well mean while he got arrested for a charge and Massachusetts had 10 days to get him but they said they dropped the warrant. I've heard its alot of money for the states to travel that distance. and they don't bother but it also depends on the charges. if it was violent maybe they would but you never know

Response to the added information: It is true that sometimes budgetary problems and expenses may restrict the decision on whether to carry out an extradition or not - HOWEVER - the question is ALWAYS in doubt and I wouldn't bet my freedom on whether the state wants to 'get off the dime' or not. Keep in mind, altho they chose not to travel that far for an extradition that time, and they may have dropped the warrant, but I'll bet they did not pardon or dismiss his violation. If he ever travels back to Indiana, or a more nearby state, he may not be so lucky the next time.

Are traffic offences enough to extradited from ca to NJ?
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. It may depend, in part, on the offense and the seriousness of it, and/or how badly they want you returned - most states WILL extradite for felony offenses. That being said...... Unless it's a felony DUI perhaps involving a manslaughter charge, it is doubtful they would. Consider this though - if you have not appeared in court on traffic charges your drivers license is probably either suspended or revoked at this time. If/when you eventually get stopped you're probably going to be arrested on that offense.
How long can a county jail in Texas hold an inmate waiting extradition?
As far as I'm aware there are no statutory timeframes for the process of extradition. As long as the legal process between the two states has begun and is progressing, then it takes as long as it takes. More so, especially if the extradition is being "fought' by the fugitive. The lesson to be learned? When there is a warrant for you turn yourself in and then you won't be spending weeks in someone else's jail.
