Release/Bail

Release dates and times are not provided for the safety and security of the incarcerated individual. For commitments, individuals are typically released approximately the same hour that they were booked.

Bail is determined by the courts. If the court allows bail, inmates may be bailed out 24 hours a day. Some times of day are busier than others, so it may take a few hours. Bail information is detailed on the inmate roster. You may be able to pay bondable bail directly to the court in which they were charged.

Public transportation stops/stations are nearby.
