Chapter 10 - Release of Inmates



The release or transfer of an inmate is determined both law and by Department policy. If lockup personnel have any doubt about the disposition of an inmate, the Branch Supervisor shall be contacted, prior to taking action. Under no circumstances shall an inmate be released or transferred who cannot be positively identified. If there is doubt of the identity of an inmate, the inmate shall be returned to Inmate Reception Center (IRC) / Century Regional Detention Facility (CRDF).
