Q: Can south carolina issue a Vop warrant after your probation ended and clan the extridite you from ga if the 1st part an
A:
To answer your first question: No. Once your probation has officially ended, you cannot be "violated" for actions you took while on probation; your probationary period is over, and you are no longer subject to its conditions, even if a violation occurred during that time.
However, it is possible that your probation period was tolled. Therefore, you must ensure that your probation did in fact end. A tolling order can be issued by a judge and will temporarily stop the running of your probation. This frequently occurs when someone fails to report.
This will be very important because it is possible for a state to have you extradited for a probation violation. If they do this will depend largely on the circumstances. However, the Uniform Criminal Extradition Act (UCEA) requires states to cooperate in extraditing fugitives from other states. This means that if you have a warrant for a probation violation in one state, you can be arrested in another state and held until you are extradited back to the state where the violation occurred.
