Magistrate Order North Carolina

Some crimes which may be subject to extradition include murder, kidnapping, drug trafficking, terrorism, rape, sexual assault, burglary, embezzlement, arson, or espionage.

A magistrate is an independent judicial officer, recognized by the North Carolina Constitution as an officer of the district court. Magistrates perform numerous duties in both civil and criminal proceedings.

Ask (through a requisition) the governor of North Carolina to extradite. The governor of North Carolina will, in turn, issue a governor's warrant. The governor's warrant gives North Carolina officials the authority to take the fugitive into custody to await pick-up by officials from the other state.

As of 2010, in practice, Florida, Alaska, and Hawaii typically do not request extradition if the crime in question is not a felony because of the associated costs of transporting the suspect and the housing fees that must be paid to the jurisdiction in which the accused is held until transported.

Not all states have adopted the UCEA, however, states that have not adopted it have their own extradition laws that comply with the federal law. The only two U.S. states that have not adopted the UCEA are South Carolina and Missouri.

In addition, non-payment is a felony under federal law under some circumstances. All states have criminal laws setting penalties for failure to support a child or a family.In the remaining states (including Connecticut) the crime of non-payment of child support is a misdemeanor or unclassified crime.

The Extradition Clause in the US Constitution requires states, upon demand of another state, to deliver a fugitive from justice who has committed a "treason, felony or other crime" to the state from which the fugitive has fled.
