Not familiar with the term "courtesy" hold. If you are held for extradition as a fugitive from another state, there is no "courtesy" about it. It's simply "the law."
**********
"Courtesy hold" is a common term to those familiar with the law. It means that a person is being held as a courtesy to an agency in another jurisdiction. This is common for example with the US Marshals when they arrest a person in one jurisdiction and have them held in a local jail until they can be transported. The exact length of time varies from one state to the next, but it is normally 7 - 10 days (enough time to arrange extradition paperwork and transportation).
30 days
Another View: It can vary according to the state. Generally, as long as it is confimed that the extraditiing state is in the process of fulfilling the administrative requirements of both state's laws you will remain in custody until picked up. By all means, if you are still in custody approaching 30 days, file a writ of habeus corpus.
They can hold them as long as they need to for the state of Indiana to pick them up. Unfortunately in this type of situation you are at the mercy of both states - Oakland could release them and have Indiana issue a warrant for their arrest or hold them for extradition as long as they want. The crimes are probably pretty serious if Indiana is willing to come pick you up for extradition so it probably won't take long (not more than a month).
Until they are picked up by the county that holds the warrant.Added: The term "Extradition" is used only when referring to out-of-state warrants.
The legal term "extradition" does not apply to intra-state transfers of wanted fugitives. Extradition applies only to those fugitives removed state-to-state. It sounds like you are being held for a plain old prisoner transfer.
They can hold you as long as they want as long as the issuing state orders you held for extradition.
10 Days
There is no statutory time limit on the extradition process. Once notified and the legal process of extradition is begun, and is proceeding, it takes as long as it takes.
72 hours
As long as extradition has begun and it is proceeding according to the orderly legal process of both states, there is no statutory requirement that it be accomplished within a certain timeframe. It takes as long as it takes.
10 days depending on wether or not you chose to sign the extradition waiver.North Carolina came and got me on the 10th day.If you don't sign,they can take as long as they want.
What are you being "held" for? If you are going to be charged and arraigned the time limit is governed by constitutional law. If you are being helf for extradition, then there is no statutory time limit.... as long as the extraditing state is in the process of removing you.
A Governor's Warrant (also known as Extradition) is issued when the apprehending state officially notifies the "wanting" state of the fugitive's arrest. It is both a legal and an administrative process, and how long it takes is not governed by statute. It can take as long as it takes. If the fugitive is still awaiting extradition in jail after 60 - 90 days, they should file a Writ of Habeus Corpus.
