Types of California Extradition

There are two kinds of California extradition cases involving fugitives seeking asylum:

• Arrested in California, but the crime occurred in another U.S. state. The other state is called the demanding state or the wanting state. This individual (wanted criminal or fugitive), might not know that he/she is being accused of the crime in the wanting state, or may have fled from the wanting state to California to seek asylum.
  
• Arrested for a crime committed in California, but now living in another state to seek asylum. Again, the individual (wanted criminal or fugitive) may or may not know that he/she is wanted for a crime that occurred in California. In this case, California is the demanding state.
