Which European states extradite to the US?
ALL of the European Common Market Countries have extradition treaties with the U.S.
I don't know about Washington state, but in Iowa if you are on probation - even for a misdemeanor - you would have signed a document prior to being granted probation which would state that you automatically agree to waive extradition if you should ever become a fugitive. What that means is, if Washington state is like Iowa, then there will be nothing in the way to stop them from coming to get you. You can't fight extradition whatsoever.
There was a case in Iowa recently over a football player who was convicted of credit card fraud, an aggravated misdemeanor, was put on probation and fled to Michigan. Because he had waived extradition when he signed up for probation in the first place, he was quickly taken back from Michigan to Iowa. Lucky for him he was given time served when he arrived back in Iowa.

ANOTHER VIEW: From the wording of the question it appears that you are STILL IN WA state. If you were convicted in a WA state court of a violation of WA state laws, you do not have to be 'extradited' at all. Extradition only applies to returnees from one state to another state. Prisoner transfers WITHIN a state are rather routinely done. The only thing that has to be done is to have them send a deputy for you to bring you back to the county where you were convicted. Whether they will bother to do it or not, is an unknown.
Will Wyoming extradite you from California or Washington State for a misdemeanor charge?
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 or not, there are simply too many variables. It may depend on the offense and the seriousness of it and/or how badly they want you returned - most states WILLextradite for felony offenses.

It's my understanding that the US Constitution requires Oregon to let Nevada have the individual.

A Writ of Extradition (also known as a Governor's Warrant) is issued when one state want to remove and return a fugitive that they want from another state who has that person arrested and held in jail.
Where to go to escape felony charges?
In the US - there are no "sanctuary' states. All states and territories honor each other's requests for extradition. Additionally, most (not all, but most) foreign countries have reciprocal extradition agreements with the US. Probably the only countries that don't.....you wouldn't want to go there.
What is the time limit for Connecticut to extradite?
It can depend upon the statute of enforcement limitation for the particular offense for which you may be wanted. The time limit on some offenses NEVER expires.
Will Alaska extradite you back to Alabama if im being charged with Poss of Meth?
If Alabama wants you, it is unlikely that Alaska will refuse to send you back.
If you are in Minnesota, Iowa, or Illinois the chances are pretty good. If you are in Alaska, or Florida, less so. What you should be worried about is the status of your drivers license. It is, no doubt, suspended or revoked at this time. If WI entered a warrant into the system for you - when you go to renew it or apply for a replacement, and they run your name, guess what's going to happen.
How long before a person is extradited from one county to another in Ohio for a misdemeanor?
There is no such thing as EXTRADITION between counties of the same state. They simply do a "courtesy hold" on you until the other county sends someone for you. Extradition is a legal term used when governments remove people from state to state or nation to nation.
Does Canada extradite to South Carolina?
It is POSSIBLE. It can depend upon the seriousness of the offense and how badly SC wants you returned.
Question is not clear. SEVERAL agencies or organizations become involved in the steps of along the way in the detection, investigation, apprehension, prosecution, and detention of offenders who commit these crimes. What SPECIFICALLY are you asking?
First of all, the wording of your question is confusing. If you have a warrant in GA, and you are in SC, it is GA that will extradite you FROM SC. Whether SC will extradite offenders from other states, or not, is immaterial. The fact that the officer is an SC law officer means that he doesn't necessarily know anything about GA law so I would not take that individual officer's opinion on the subject. The best way to avoid these problems would be for you to contact GA and find out what you need to do to clear the warrant or at a time when you least expect it, you're going to get blind-sided.
no the will go to jail in the state that they are in
yes they will
Your jail time awaiting extradition might possibly be taken into account by the sentencing judge when he renders his verdict and sentence, but there is no assurance of it.
The operative term is "reasonable." They may not get to you within 24 hours but enither will they leave you in the other state for a year either.
No one can answer this question. It depends on what the terms of YOUR probation read. SUPERVISED probation implies that you have to be available or check in periodically. Read the papers, or contact your probation officer. If you violate any requirements you will be VOP'd and probably a warrant issued for your arrest.
Insufficient information about the offenses. What class Misdemeanors? What is their seriousness? How long have the warrants been outstanding? PARTIAL ANSWER: IF your name has been entered into the NCIC database you can, and will, eventually be arrested whenever a Law Enforcement Officer makes contact with you and has occasion to "run" your name. Budget constraints MIGHT occasionally preclude the cost and transportation from one state to another, but let's face it... California is not THAT far from Washington.
the action of extraditing a person accused of convicted a crime!!! :))))
Are warrants valid out of state?
