Will the state of Oregon extradite from the state of Utah on a misdemeanor warrant?

Realistically, in the budget crunch that all states are undergoing these days, they MAY not want to bother with bringing you back for a misdemeanor offense - HOWEVER - that being said - it cannot be 100% counted on to save you. 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.

What was the Oregon territory?

The Oregon Territory 'belonged' to both the United States and Britain. It was in the area that is presently Oregon, Washington, and parts of Idaho--also known as west of the Continental Divide. Due to the Mexican-American war, America was not going to entice war on two fronts, so instead, the military focused on the weaker Mexico, and appeased the more powerful Britain. However, the American's reason for staying in the Oregon Territory was much more terrifying. The British, only after fur-trade economic gains, left immediately after the surplus season, while America--during the age of Manifest Destiny--brought along families, creating future settlements. In which case, due to superficial border crossings, the "54,40' parallel" developed. Since Britain and the newly developed American Republic did not want to fight a 3rd war in 70 years, President Polk accepted a previous compromise to the Oregon Boundary at the 49th parallel, as far as the Strait of Georgia. This compromise was made official in the 1846 Oregon Treaty, and still remains as the border between the U.S and Canada.

What line of latitude did the US and Britain agree upon as the border of the Oregon territory?

For many years in the early to mid-1800s, America and Britain agreed upon "joint occupancy" of the Oregon Territory. America claimed land all the way up to the 54040' while Britain claimed land as far south as the 420 .

President Polk was elected and he encouraged Manifest Destiny, stating that America's destiny included as much land gain as possible. Part of that was the entire Oregon territory. There were threats of war over the land. (Common slogan: Fifty-four Forty or fight!)

Moderation won out over calls for war and the 49th parallel was agreed to as the place of the divide, America getting all land south and the UK, all land north in the Oregon Treaty.
