Frequently Asked Questions About San Bernardino County Jails
How long does booking take in San Bernardino County
Booking times vary depending on the jail, staffing levels, and how many arrests are being processed at the time. In many cases, booking can take several hours before an inmate appears in the custody system. Late nights, weekends, and busy periods can extend this timeline.If your loved one does not appear immediately, we can monitor the status and update you once booking is complete.
Can an inmate be moved to a different jail after arrest
Yes. Transfers between San Bernardino County jails happen frequently. An inmate may be moved due to housing availability, classification, medical needs, or court requirements. If a transfer occurs, we can help locate the new facility and provide updated custody information.
Is bail always available after an arrest
No. Bail availability depends on the charges, criminal history, and whether any holds or warrants are involved. Some charges qualify for preset bail amounts, while others require a court appearance before bail is set. We can check whether bail has been assigned and explain what that means for release.
How do I find out which San Bernardino County jail my loved one is in
You only need the inmate’s name and, if possible, date of birth. We search San Bernardino County custody systems to confirm whether the person is in custody and identify the correct facility. This is especially helpful if you are unsure whether the arrest involved a city or county jail.
Can someone be released without posting bail
In some cases, yes. Certain offenses allow for release without bail, citation release, or release after a court review. Eligibility depends on the charges and custody conditions. We can explain whether this may apply in your situation.
How long does release take once bail is posted
Release times vary by facility and workload. Even after bail is posted, the jail must complete paperwork and processing before release.
