California Penal Code Section 1552
If at the hearing before the magistrate, it appears that the accused is the person charged with having committed the crime alleged, the magistrate must, by a warrant reciting the accusation, commit him to the county jail for such a time, not exceeding thirty days and specified in the warrant, as will enable the arrest of the accused to be made under a warrant of the Governor on a requisition of the executive authority of the State having jurisdiction of the offense, unless the accused give bail as provided in section 1552.1, or until he shall be legally discharged.
California Penal Code Section 1552.1
Unless the offense with which the prisoner is charged, is shown to be an offense punishable by death or life imprisonment under the laws of the state in which it was committed, or it is shown that the prisoner is alleged to have escaped or violated the terms of his parole following conviction of a crime punishable in the state of conviction by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year, the magistrate may admit the person arrested to bail by bond or undertaking, with sufficient sureties, and in such sum as he deems proper, conditioned upon the appearance of such person before him at a time specified in such bond or undertaking, and for his surrender upon the warrant of the Governor of this state. Nothing in this section or in Section 1553 shall be deemed to prevent the immediate service of a Governor’s warrant issued under Section 1549.2.
California Penal Code Section 1552.2
If the accused is not arrested under warrant of the Governor by the expiration of the time specified in the warrant, bond, or undertaking, a magistrate may discharge him or may recommit him for a further period of 60 days. In the latter event a justice of the Supreme Court or court of appeal or a judge of the superior court may again take bail for his appearance and surrender, as provided in Section 1552.1 but within a period not to exceed 60 days after the date of such new bond or undertaking.
Hiring a California Extradition Attorney: How we are engaged
Some of our clients arrive alone, without other representation. We become central to assembling the necessary team for a comprehensive defense including attorneys and experts in the United States and Internationally. We have extensive experience and contacts around the world.
Others however reach us through their foreign counsel and engage our services to become part of the defense team they are putting together.
Fees and Expenses:
Every case has a completely different set of facts and circumstances that make quoting a case highly individual. Cases involving international extradition laws can be extremely expensive due to the time needed for long-distance travel. Cases within the United States on the other hand may involve little more work than the defense itself and so can sometimes be included in the defense fee itself.
Due to the nature of many extradition cases, significant time may be required to prepare for a meaningful consultation and often can also require travel. As such, attorney’s fees will likely be incurred for the consultation itself. All such fees will be applied in full to your retainer should you decide to engage our services. Call us today to schedule your free consultation.
