The Rhode Island Waiver of Extradition Proceedings and Fugitive From Justice is an agreement that allows an individual charged with a crime in a different state to waive any right to challenge extradition proceedings in Rhode Island in return for a promise to appear in the court of the state that has charged the individual with the crime. Under this agreement, the individual charged with the crime is called a fugitive from justice. The waiver of extradition proceedings is a voluntary agreement between the accused and the state of Rhode Island, meaning that the accused must agree to the waiver in order to participate in the agreement. There are two types of Rhode Island Waiver of Extradition Proceedings and Fugitive From Justice: full waivers and conditional waivers. A full waiver means that the individual agrees to be extradited without any conditions, while a conditional waiver allows the individual to set certain conditions, such as the right to a hearing or the right to be present at the extradition hearing. The type of waiver chosen depends on the individual's circumstances and the seriousness of the crime for which they are being charged.
