If you move from State A to State B and State A declines extradition, is there a statute of limitations on the DUI. It may also matter that it is the 5th dui for him. They all occurred in a 2 year period when he had a rough patch in his life. He is now doing great and wants to know his options.
If I read this right, the driver has moved from STate A to state B and is counting on state A not wanting him back enough to extradite him.
All that means is that the warrant will go unserved. It WILL remain and will not expire. Some day state A may decide to extradite the driver from state B, but until then the warrant will exist.
Sorry, but moving away will not get him out of it even if he waits for years. And if it is a felony, state A may decide that extradition is a good idea. AND, they could decide at any time that it's a good idea.
