When a person appears at the lockup with a receipt indicating that bail has been posted, the Deputy shall:

  • Check with the respective court to ascertain if any change has taken place in the prisoner's status;
  • If any changes exist in the prisoner's status, do not release;
  • If no changes exist in the prisoner's status, the following shall apply:
    • County prisoners - call IRC/CRDF to verify that bail has been posted and to determine if additional charges or holds exist.  Releases or holds are to be processed as outlined in the preceding subsection;
    • Station bookings - verify with the Station jailer that bail has been posted on the proper charge and in the correct amount.  If no CWS slip in the prisoner's packet, obtain verification from the Station jailer.  The release is then processed, and authority to release is noted on the transmittal sheet; or
    • LAPD or other agency booking - verify with the agency that bail has been posted and is correct and that there are no holds.  If no holds, process the release.
