waiver of extradition Criminal Trials, Hearings

If someone is a state inmate in one state and waives a detainer agreement to another state and it takes the 2nd state 55 weeks to come and retrieve that inmate for a trial is that legal? Isn't there a time limit? Are civil rights violated? Can you appeal?

 

Yes, my friend has been in jail for over a year....he committed a crime in one state then committed a crime in another state but never came to get him until he took a plea in that state.....so after 55 weeks the 1st state came to get him to start up a trial.....
Isn't there a specific amount of time that a state would come get him? Why wait til he makes a plea in the other state when they all along have been waiting to take him to trial but waited on him taking a plea and then picking him up to bring him back for a trial.......doesn't make sense..........
