Will Virginia extradite you for failure to appear on child support?
NOTE: You should consult an attorney to discuss the facts of your particular case.
Virginia can and will request extradition for probation violations but the decision can be both fact and jurisdiction-specific. Each Commonwealth's Attorney's Office weighs the costs and benefits of pursuing extradition based on the underlying case. To understand what goes into that decision generally, see the Virginia Extradition Manual, available at: http://www.commonwealth.virginia.gov/judicialsystem/extraditions/extraditionManual.pdf
While the Commonwealth does bear the up-front costs of extradition, if found guilty, Virginia Code Section 19.2-112 states that the defendant is assessed the extradition costs and expenses.
If a Capias (warrant) has been issued alleging a probation violation, if you are stopped for something as minimal as a speeding ticket in another state, you may be arrested and the extradition process would begin. In Virginia, a capias issued for probation violation(s) is valid for 7 years. In the long run, it may be worth it to get back and face the charge before you get dragged back in handcuffs and run the risk of footing the bill.
