7-03/010.07 Warrants Originated by Agencies Within Los Angeles County



Inmates arrested by Sheriff's personnel and delivered to a court lockup from a Sheriff's station with warrants that are not adjudicated at the court, will be accepted for transportation, regardless of which agency originated the warrant.

All inmates with warrants originated by police agencies in Los Angeles County that have been arrested by Sheriff's Department personnel, and booked at Sheriff's stations shall be accepted for transportation at the Sheriff's station.  

Inmates shall not be accepted for transportation from any court lockup or station, if such transportation is in violation of Inmate Reception Center's guidelines for acceptance of inmates.

L.A.P.D. inmates transported to court for arraignment on a Transportation Bureau bus shall be accepted for transportation from a court lockup when they have outstanding warrants from other agencies.

Inmates arrested by an outside agency on another outside agency's warrant and booked at a Sheriff's station solely for transportation to court or to another agency shall not be accepted for transportation. It is the responsibility of the arresting agency to contact the agency initiating the warrant, for pick-up of the inmate. If a Sheriff's station accepts the inmate, it is the station's responsibility to contact the agency initiating the warrant, for pick-up of the inmate.  

An outside agency's membership in the Consolidated Booking System has no bearing on this policy.
