Flagstaff Jail Facility

Dial 928-226-5200 and listen to the menu. The county says that line also covers court, commissary, medical, and similar services, so choose the bond option. The jail's web page gives no bond window hours and no payment chart. Ask the staff member who answers where a payment is taken, when that spot is open, and which forms of payment they accept.

Should a date or amount look wrong, check with the Coconino County Detention Facility, 951 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, by phone at 928-226-5200.

The county facility, 951 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, holds sentenced and unsentenced adults and has an operating capacity of 477 beds. The Page facility, 713 Tunnel Road, Page, AZ 86040, has 24 short-term beds and holds people arrested in the north before a transfer south. If the arrest was near Lake Powell, call Page at 928-645-8873 first. Otherwise start with Flagstaff.

Rule 4.1 gives the jail (951 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-226-5200) one day to put the person in front of a judge. The county says the hearing can happen by closed-circuit video from the jail or in person. The judge reads the arresting officer's form and may hear from the county attorney. Pretrial Services, 928-679-8460, helps the court with release questions.

The county public defender describes five: release on your own promise, supervised release with conditions like a drug program or no contact with the victim, release to a responsible third party, a signature bond that only costs money after a no-show, and a secured bond where cash or property is put up first. The judge picks the type at the first hearing.

The arresting agency and the spot of the arrest decide. City courts include Flagstaff Municipal, 928-213-3000 (101 West Cherry Avenue, Flagstaff, AZ 86001); Page Municipal, 928-645-4280; Williams Municipal, 928-635-4456; and Fredonia Municipal, 928-643-7241 (25 North Main Street, Fredonia, AZ 86022). County cases go to a justice court (200 N. San Francisco St., Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-679-7650; in Fredonia at 112 N. Main St., Fredonia, AZ 86022, 928-643-7472; in Page at 547 Vista Ave., Page, AZ 86040, 928-645-8871; in Williams at 700 W. Railroad Ave., Williams, AZ 86046, 928-679-7698): Flagstaff 928-679-7650, Page 928-645-8871, Williams 928-635-2691, or Fredonia 928-643-7472. The jail (951 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-226-5200) can tell you which one set the terms.

In Coconino Superior Court, 200 North San Francisco Street, Flagstaff, AZ 86001. The Clerk of the Superior Court, Bradley Crossland (appointed by the presiding judge in January 2026), answers at 928-679-7600, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Ask the clerk whether a superior court bond is paid there or at the jail (951 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-226-5200).

Arizona licenses them, and you can verify one with the state insurance department. A state rule, A.A.C. R20-6-601, requires agents to use premium rates on file with the Director of Insurance. It also requires them to keep your collateral apart from their own money, give you a receipt for it, and hand it back once the bond is discharged. Ask for all of this in writing.

The county says property may back a secured bond, yet it gives no how-to. Call the clerk (200 North San Francisco Street, Flagstaff, AZ 86001) at 928-679-7600 and ask how the court values the property, whether it must be in Coconino County, and which owners must sign. Keep your deed in hand until those answers are written down.

The Arizona Constitution (art. 2, sec. 22) and A.R.S. 13-3961 allow it for capital crimes when proof is evident, for a new felony by someone already free on bond for one, and for a few other serious cases. The Coconino public defender also notes a judge may hold such cases without bond. If the screen says "no bond," ask the jail (951 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-226-5200) whether this rule or just a hold applies.

Yes, in some cases. The court may change release terms after both sides respond (Rule 7.4(c)). After a preliminary hearing, a defense lawyer may ask the justice of the peace to look again. The county notes that bond motions at arraignment are generally not heard in Coconino County. For a misdemeanor, the court must review the terms within 10 days of the first hearing.

Speak up at the first hearing; the judge can assign a lawyer. The Coconino County Public Defender is at 110 East Cherry Avenue, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-679-7700, or toll-free 866-290-2466, open weekdays 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The office takes a case only after the court appoints it, so the request starts with the judge.

The county runs its own Juvenile Detention Center, 1001 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001. Juvenile court answers at 928-226-5400. The state's 211 directory lists the detention center itself at 928-226-5599, weekdays 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Juveniles do not post an adult bond. A juvenile judge decides on release at a detention hearing, so ask for the hearing date when you call.

Tribal police can hold people under tribal law, and tribal courts hear those cases. Navajo Police (240 South Main Street, Building C, Tuba City, AZ 86045) dispatch is 928-283-3111 for Tuba City and 928-697-5600 for Kayenta. Navajo detention is at 928-280-7366 in Tuba City and 928-697-5624 in Kayenta. For the Hopi jail call 928-738-2236; Hualapai, 928-769-2490; and Havasupai, 928-433-8130. Ask each place which court has the person.

A warrant is likely. The court then sends notice to the bail agent and surety by email, or by post if no email is on file (A.R.S. 13-3973), and the surety can get off the hook by returning the person to jail (A.R.S. 13-3974). Contact the court that holds the case today (felonies sit with the Superior Court, 200 North San Francisco Street, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-679-7600). Counsel can sometimes win a fresh court date.

The two are unrelated. The county sends commissary and phone deposits through a separate vendor, and that money has no effect on a bond. Phone scammers ask for app payments or gift cards; end the call and dial 928-226-5200 (951 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001) yourself.

Arrests in national parks, forests or on tribal land are often federal. Those cases go to the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona, and Coconino County bail doesn't apply:

• A magistrate judge holds the first hearing at Flagstaff federal courthouse, 123 North San Francisco Street, Flagstaff, AZ 86001 (928-774-2566).
• Pretrial services reviews the person's background.
• The judge sets conditions or holds a detention hearing.
• Any bond is posted through the federal court clerk.

People held federally are placed by the Marshals. Call U.S. Marshals Service, 123 North San Francisco Street, Suite 101, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-213-0135.

Bond pays for the county case only. ICE uses 8 CFR 287.7 to ask jails to keep someone up to 48 hours after they would otherwise be released. Arizona's A.R.S. 11-1051 says counties must leave immigration enforcement unrestricted, but it doesn't make holds mandatory, and Coconino County has no public 287(g) agreement. Ask the jail (951 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-226-5200) how it treats a detainer.

The county case still has dates to keep after any ICE transfer. ICE matters here go to the ICE Phoenix Field Office, 2035 North Central Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85004, 602-257-5900, and detainees are often taken to:

• Florence Service Processing Center: 3250 North Pinal Parkway, Florence, AZ 85132 · 520-868-5862

The Superior Court handles felony bonds. Juvenile matters go to Sawmill Road:

• Flagstaff courthouse (Superior Court): 200 North San Francisco Street, Flagstaff, AZ 86001 · 928-679-7600
• Juvenile court on Sawmill Road: 1001 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001 · 928-226-5400

A stop inside Flagstaff, Sedona, Page, Williams or Fredonia usually lands in that town's court; anywhere else it lands in the precinct's justice court (200 N. San Francisco St., Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-679-7650; in Fredonia at 112 N. Main St., Fredonia, AZ 86022, 928-643-7472; in Page at 547 Vista Ave., Page, AZ 86040, 928-645-8871; in Williams at 700 W. Railroad Ave., Williams, AZ 86046, 928-679-7698). Many offenders are simply cited. Anyone who is booked sees a judge within 24 hours, often by video from the Flagstaff jail (951 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-226-5200), and Arizona law favors releasing misdemeanor defendants without money bail unless the facts call for conditions.

Arizona caps misdemeanor punishment by class. Class 1 can mean half a year and $2,500, class 2 four months and $750, class 3 thirty days and $500, and state surcharges come on top. DUIs on the Interstate 40 and Interstate 17 corridors are among the most common charges in Coconino County’s limited-jurisdiction courts, and a first offense still means some required jail days plus a breath-test lock on the car. A person facing possible jail with no money for counsel gets one named by the court, sometimes with a partial bill.

Jury trials are available for a limited set of misdemeanors, including DUI, and use six jurors; the rest are decided by a judge. Plea bargains, diversion, deferred prosecution and dismissals settle most cases. Most misdemeanor cases are finished within a few months.

Young people are handled differently. A juvenile under 18 accused of a misdemeanor is referred to the Coconino County Juvenile Court, 1001 East Sawmill Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-226-5400, where probation staff and the County Attorney often divert first-time cases to community service, classes or restitution without a formal petition. Small matters like teen drinking, tobacco, curfew and traffic tickets can go to a justice or city court.

An adult held on a felony sees a judge inside 24 hours; the judge sets release terms and names a lawyer if the person qualifies. The Coconino County Public Defender’s Office represents most indigent adults and also handles youth cases; if there is a conflict, an outside lawyer gets the case.

The County Attorney must then establish probable cause through either a preliminary hearing in justice court, required within 10 days of the initial appearance for a jailed defendant or 20 days for a released one, or an indictment from the county grand jury. After that, the case moves to the Superior Court (200 North San Francisco Street, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-679-7600) in Flagstaff for arraignment. Rule 8 of the Arizona criminal rules requires trial within 150 days of arraignment when the defendant is in custody or 180 days when released, subject to excluded time and extensions.

Arizona classifies felonies from class 1 down to class 6. Some class 6 offenses may be left “undesignated” and later treated as misdemeanors under A.R.S. 13-604 after a good run on probation. Earlier felony records move sentences into the higher ranges set by A.R.S. 13-703, and prisoners must complete 85% of their terms. Trial juries have eight members in most felony cases. Coconino County also runs treatment-based recovery court options for some drug-related defendants. Most felony cases settle by plea within six to twelve months.

Juveniles accused of felonies usually remain in Juvenile Court. Coconino County keeps its own youth lockup in Flagstaff, and any teen held there needs a petition filed and a detention hearing held within 24 hours of each step, per Juvenile Rule 218(c). The County Attorney may choose to file in adult court under A.R.S. 13-501(B) when a youth at least 14 is accused of a class 1 or class 2 felony, certain class 3 felonies, a dangerous offense, or is a chronic felony offender. Juvenile Court authority usually ends on the 18th birthday, though the state may give notice to keep jurisdiction over a 17-year-old until 19.

The steps are the usual felony ones, yet getting out before trial is much tougher. The state constitution (Article 2, Section 22) allows no-bail holds in capital and sexual assault cases when the evidence is strong. For other grave charges, a judge may refuse release after a hearing finds the person dangerous. Arizona Supreme Court decisions starting in 2017 struck down some of the categorical no-bail provisions, putting more emphasis on case-specific hearings.

Offenses involving deadly weapons, dangerous instruments or serious physical injury are prosecuted as dangerous offenses under A.R.S. 13-704, which requires prison. A first-time dangerous armed robbery or kidnapping carries 7 to 21 years. Sexual assault is punished by 5.25 to 14 years on a first conviction without any early release, followed by sex-offender registration. A first-degree murder conviction leads to death or life imprisonment. Arizona’s executions, which restarted in 2022 and were paused for review, resumed again in 2025. Capital juries have 12 members, and appointed counsel in death cases must include two qualified attorneys. A killing or assault on reservation land involving a Native American may be charged federally and heard in the Flagstaff federal courtroom.

The Arizona Victims’ Bill of Rights, found in Article 2, Section 2.1, lets victims hear about dates, show up and talk at the big hearings, turn down defense questions, and be repaid. The County Attorney’s victim witness staff assist with these rights. Major violent cases in Coconino County generally take one to three years.

For the most serious juvenile cases, adult court is mandatory. A.R.S. 13-501(A) directs that teens aged 15 through 17 be charged as adults when the allegation is first- or second-degree murder, armed robbery, forcible sexual assault or some other violent felony offense, and also when a chronic felony offender in that age group is accused of any felony. Those defendants are arraigned in Superior Court (200 North San Francisco Street, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-679-7600) rather than on Sawmill Road, yet a youth under 18 at the time of the offense is shielded from execution and from automatic life with no release.

A detainer asks the jail to hold a person up to 48 hours after they would otherwise be released. It is signed by an ICE officer, not a judge. A.R.S. 11-1051 bars limits on immigration enforcement, and Coconino has no public 287(g) agreement.
