Federal habeas -- extradition Login/Join 
Member
posted
We have a fellow in our jail who does not want to return to scene of the crime, as it were. We had an extradition trial and he has appealed it and finally been refused on PDR. Now he has filed a writ in federal court. Does anyone have a stock response or advice on responding to a writ of this kind. Thanks.

This post gave me a much needed laugh. I wish I had something to help.

You might contact the AG's office, post litigation division. They might be willing to help. I don't know what he is claiming but it may not be a cognizaable claim for a federal writ if it is just challenging extradition itself.
