| Money
and Property |
When
an arrested person is booked into the jail/detention facility,
U.S. currency at the time of booking is deposited into
an inmate account under the arrestee's name. No personal
or company checks will be deposited. Inmates are not allowed
to transfer funds from their account to another inmate's
account.
The funds in the inmate's account are available for their
own use to purchase a variety of services available within
the jail facility.
These services include:
- Booking/bonding
fees
- Photocopying/notary
fees
- Commissary
- Medical/dental
charges
- Pay fines or
court costs
Upon release, any
remaining funds will be returned to the inmate in the
form of an institutional check, only.
Property
An inmate may release any or all property from jail
storage, with the exception of one set of clothing that
will be worn upon release or transfer. The inmate must
sign to approve the property release or it will not
occur.
The authorized recipient can pick up the property but
must be at least 18 years old, and will be required
to provide a valid Photo Identification Card, Driver
License, or Military Identification Card. Identification
must include birth date or Social Security Number and
shall not be expired. All recipients are subject to
warrant checks and arrest.
The recipient can expect significant delays in getting
property released if the release was not prearranged
with the inmate so that the inmate can complete the
release form. We do not interrupt an inmate's work duties,
classes, or court appearances to have an inmate sign
a form. Once a release is approved, the physical retrieval
of property is subject to staff availability.
Property can be picked up during normal business hours
of 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
