Introduction

"Extradition is the delivery of an accused or a convicted individual to the state were he is accused of, or has been convcivted of, a crime, by the state on whose territory he happens for the time being to be."  See I Oppenheim 948 and 949.  Extradition is often controlled by treaty, covention, state practice, or some combination thereof.   The University of Iowa Law Library has a rich collection of primary and secondary resources addressing the issue of extradition in international law in general, and in state practices in particular. 

Abbey Moffitt, a student at the University of Iowa College of Law, authored this Research Guide as part of the course requirements for the fall 2013 Foreign, Comparative, and International Law Advanced Legal Research course.
