What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state?Alaska
Can anyone tell me what the official time is or the meaning for the term "reasonable amount of time" as used in extradition? My fiance is being held in the state of Alaska awaiting extradition to Alabama for 2 warrants in that state. #1- Violation of Parole. #2- No reason is given for second warrant. He has been in jail for going on 6 weeks and has not received a preliminary hearing nor has he been given a bail hearing. He really doesnt know what his rights are right now or how long this limbo land can last. He knows he has to take responsibility for his actions and we both agree that getting this put behind us is what we really want, but he is truly sitting in limbo. We want them to either let him out here in Alaska and we will go back to Alabama on our own and face the situation. (This would give us the opportunity to get our things here packed up and taken care of. I am by myself otherwise) OR we want him to get sent back to Alabama NOW. Or soon at least. Or even just give us some time tables here. He was told he could get bonded out and when we got to the bond hearing and as we walked into the courtroom a clerk stopped us and told us the hearing was cancelled because they had just realized he had signed a waiver of Extradition when he was being paroled. He didnt even know that he had signed it. They still have not shown any waiver though. Everything in his case seems to being done dirty. Or at least it really looks like they have made so many mistakes and when they started realizing them they tried to put it all under the rug. They even rushed him off to Anchorage the day after the hearing was supposed to be telling us it was because Alabama was on there way. That was 10 days ago. His public defender has only spoken to him for possibly 20 minutes total for the whole 6 weeks he has been there and won't talk to anyone else. She is defiantly not helping him, but we are afraid if we fire her, he will get really lost in the system and have no hope at all. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME..........
There is so much more going on here but this is simple explanation of where we are right now.
