What is Extradition?
The meaning of extradition is to transfer a person who has been accused of a crime over to another cooperating jurisdiction. This can happen when you have outstanding legal issues in another state. It is often a highly distressing process for the subject of the process.
You can either consent, request a bond, or request a hearing. We recommend not consenting unless it’s your last option, especially because insufficient documentation or identification can help you avoid the process. You won’t know until it is looked into. Our legal team has experience helping clients avoid being extradited, and we are ready to help you, too.
Call our office at (770) 574-6688 or our 24/7 criminal defense line at (678) 831-5855.
