All states are signatories to an interstate compact that grants reciproicity to each other's child support judgements. Florida may not extradite you, but Maine can charge you (under the provisions of the compact) and pressure you to come into compliance with Florida's child support order.

Individual US states cannot extradite from a foreign nation. They must channel the request through the US Justice or State Departments to initiate the action. However - the Canadian citizen IS subject to arrest anytime they are in the US, if an interstate warrant exists for them.

The US Constitution requires every State to honor the extradition requests of every other State.

To answer your question, YES it is possible for Florida to extradite to Michigan. It will depend on whether or not it is a felony case. My ex husband was just picked up in Pinellas Park, Florida on Saturday. He is currently waiting on extradition to Wayne County, Michigan for Felony Failure to pay Child Support. It will depend on how much your ex owes, and who goes after him. Normally, the child support office will not request extradition. Have you considered contacting the Attorney General's Office? They may be able to give you additional help with this. Hope this helps!

In theory yes, in practice it would not be necessary. All U.S. states and commonwealths honor and enforce domestic child support orders regardless of the state in which it is issued as mandated by federal law.

This means, no matter where a non custodial parent lives he or she can face the same penalties, such as loss of driving privileges or garnishment of wages or levy of bank accounts or liens against personal or real property and even incarceration.

It depends. Non-payment of child support can be considered a criminal offense in some circumstances, and yes, states will extradite to other states for that offense.
