What you quoted were my responses to LdiJ’s statement that “states will generally not extradite..”Let's see now . . . When seeking advice as to whether or not a person can be arrested in one state and transported to a sister state for the purpose of answering charges of criminal contempt pending in a federal district court of the sister state the following information will be helpful: (Some paraphrasing and emphasis added)
(1) "A lot of factors go into whether a STATE will demand extradition."
(2) "The location of the STATES involved matters"
(3) "If there are multiple defendants to be retrieved from a STATE (matters.)"
(4) "The defendant can sit in jail while a STATE debates whether to extradite or not."

Pardon me for mentioning it, but you and the renowned Irish playwright appear to differ somewhat in the suffering of such pains!
For Dalton, the proper venue is the court in the district which issued the order.
I’ve seen that you have been struggling the last few days to either find fault with my previous statements or to find a good place for the Shaw quote you located, Litigator, but I am afraid you missed the mark here. There was nothing wrong in what I wrote - although I always appreciate your literary quotes.
