What is the name of your state Oregon
Will Montana or other states extradite me back to oregon for a misdemeanor bench warrant? Thankyou for your time.

They usually don't - there aren't enough funds to pay for extradition.

However, every time you get stopped for a traffic violation, you can be arrested on the out-of-state warrant & you may sit in the local jail until the issuing jurisdiction tells your local law enforcement that Montana won't send someone to pick you up.

You may wind up spending quite a bit of time in jail, over the years - and not time that you had an opportunity to schedule for jail.
