2-10.025.00 Transportation of Inmates from Court



The Division policy is to transport inmates from the court lockup to IRC/CRDF, only after they have been remanded to our custody. Exceptions to this are as follows:

  • The inmate is an LAPD booking with warrants.
  • The inmate is wearing jail clothing.
  • The inmate has outstanding Sheriff’s warrants.
  • The inmate has warrants from contracting counties.
  • Positive identification of the inmate cannot be done; therefore, a release is tentative.
  • The inmate, in the Deputy’s (or CA’s) opinion, should not be released at the court facility (i.e., medical or physical problems, or they are incapable of self-care, etc.), (Advise the IRC/CRDF Watch Commander of the situation and the Branch Supervisor.)

All other inmates should be released in compliance with the current release policy or returned to the arresting agency or Station. Unusual circumstances should be brought to the attention of the Branch Supervisor immediately.
