Navajo County Jail Inmate Bail & Bonds

Look the name up with Navajo County Inmate Search, then phone 928-524-4316. The county site also posts an inmate housing report. Fresh bookings can lag. Town police sometimes keep a person at their station first, so ask the jail (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025) whether booking is complete.

The county jail (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025) page says bonds can be posted at the administration window at the jail. Arizona law, A.R.S. 13-3969, also says a jail must be open to take secured appearance bonds, money orders, cashier's checks, or cash 24 hours a day, every day, holidays included. Call 928-524-4316 to learn which door to use at night. Bring photo ID and the booking number.

That will not work. The lobby kiosk takes cash and cards, but that money goes to the person's account for the store, calls, and similar items. A bond is a separate payment at the administration window. The county says the window has not taken account deposits since March 1, 2020. Anyone who asks you to send "bond money" through an app or gift card is not the jail (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025, 928-524-4316).

Arizona Rule of Criminal Procedure 4.1 means a judge must see the person within 24 hours, or the jail (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025) lets them go. Release gets settled at that appearance, and the person is told about a right to a lawyer. Ask the jail, 928-524-4316, which court is hearing the cases and at what hour.

A.R.S. 13-3967 lists the factors. The list covers the charge, how solid the proof is, prior record, family, work, finances, years in the area and past no-shows. The victim's views count too. Options run from a signed pledge, to release with rules, to a cash amount.

Many people pay nothing at all. The county's own "Did You Know" page says most people booked into the jail (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025, 928-524-4316) are county residents short of the money for a money bond. Navajo County also runs Pretrial Services, which watches over released defendants. Ask the court whether your relative can be released with conditions instead of money. The county pretrial pages are under the Superior Court at the county website.

The sheriff's bail bond page links to a courtesy list of companies, and the jail (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025, 928-524-4316) may not recommend any one of them. Arizona agents need a state insurance license. Ask for the price, the pledge and the penalty for a skipped date on paper. The Clerk of the Superior Court, 928-524-4188, handles bail bondsman applications for the county.

It can be done only if the court accepts it, and it takes paperwork. A deed, a value estimate and every owner's signature are likely needed. Check with the clerk (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025) at 928-524-4188 whether land outside Navajo County, or outside Arizona, qualifies before you pay for a title search.

Felonies go to the Superior Court in Holbrook. Misdemeanors go to a justice court (121 West Buffalo, Holbrook, AZ 86025, 928-524-4720; in Kayenta at 1.5 miles east of Hwy. 163 and Jct. 160, at MP 394.3, Kayenta, AZ 86033, 928-697-3522; Pinetop-Lakeside: 1630 East White Mountain Blvd., Pinetop, AZ 85935, 928-368-6200; in Show Low at 550 North 9th Place, Show Low, AZ 85901, 928-532-6030; in Snowflake at 145 South Main Street, Suite D, Snowflake, AZ 85937, 928-536-4141; in Winslow at 605 East Third Street, Winslow, AZ 86047, 928-289-6840) by precinct: Holbrook 928-524-4720, Winslow 928-289-6840, Snowflake 928-536-4141, Kayenta 928-697-3522, Show Low 928-532-6030, and Pinetop-Lakeside 928-368-6200. All six keep weekday hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Ask the jail (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025, 928-524-4316) which court has your relative's case.

Holbrook police (120 East Buffalo Street, Holbrook, AZ 86025, 928-524-3992), Winslow 928-289-2431 (115 East 2nd Street, Winslow, AZ 86047), Show Low 928-537-4365 (411 East Deuce of Clubs, Show Low, AZ 85901), Snowflake-Taylor 928-536-7688, and Pinetop-Lakeside 928-368-8803 all work in the county. The sheriff's office is at 137 West Arizona Street, Holbrook, AZ 86025, 928-524-4050. The arresting agency can give you the report number and tell you if the person has already left for Holbrook.

Parts of the county lie within the Navajo Nation, and other reservations touch it. Many cases with tribal members on tribal land stay with tribal police and court, who may hold the person in a tribal jail. The Kayenta Justice Court (1.5 miles east of Hwy. 163 and Jct. 160, at MP 394.3, Kayenta, AZ 86033, 928-697-3522) says it does not handle Navajo Nation Tribal Court (240 South Main Street, Tuba City, AZ 86045, 928-283-3140) matters. The Navajo Nation Department of Corrections (240 North Main Street, Building B, Tuba City, AZ 86045, 928-280-7366) lists a Kayenta district office at 928-697-5610, and the Hopi Tribe's adult detention center near Polacca is listed at 928-738-2236. If the jail (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025, jail line 928-524-4316) has no record, call the county switchboard at 928-524-4000 and ask the tribal agency.

Under the Arizona Constitution, art. 2, section 22, and A.R.S. 13-3961, bail can be denied for capital offenses, sexual assault, certain sex crimes against young children, and new felonies by people out on felony bond, when proof is evident. It can also be denied for a felony when a judge finds the person is a substantial danger. A hold from another court has the same effect. Ask the clerk (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025), 928-524-4188.

Defense counsel may file for new release terms, and A.R.S. 13-3967 lets the court raise or lower conditions after notice to the victim. Bring job records, a home address and local family names. Jail staff (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025, 928-524-4316) have no power over the amount. If your relative lacks the funds for a lawyer, ask at the first hearing for the Navajo County Public Defender, 928-524-4080 or toll-free 800-898-5796, in the Holbrook complex.

The county uses the Navajo County Juvenile Restoration Center, also called the juvenile detention center, in the Holbrook complex (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025). A youth-law education site says it holds a maximum of 10 youths, with about two on an average day. Juvenile probation, answers at 928-524-4290. The main county line is 928-524-4000. Kids stay out of the adult search.

A warrant usually follows, and the court notifies the bonding company, under A.R.S. 13-3973. The company can close its risk by bringing the person back to jail, under A.R.S. 13-3974. Call the court that holds the case on the same day. For felonies call the clerk (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025), 928-524-4188. For a misdemeanor, call the justice court (121 West Buffalo, Holbrook, AZ 86025, 928-524-4720; in Kayenta at 1.5 miles east of Hwy. 163 and Jct. 160, at MP 394.3, Kayenta, AZ 86033, 928-697-3522; Pinetop-Lakeside: 1630 East White Mountain Blvd., Pinetop, AZ 85935, 928-368-6200; in Show Low at 550 North 9th Place, Show Low, AZ 85901, 928-532-6030; in Snowflake at 145 South Main Street, Suite D, Snowflake, AZ 85937, 928-536-4141; in Winslow at 605 East Third Street, Winslow, AZ 86047, 928-289-6840) in the right town.

Federal bond is handled by federal court, apart from Holbrook's jail. Serious crimes on the Navajo, Hopi or White Mountain Apache lands, and other federal charges, are filed with the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona in Flagstaff:

• The person appears before a magistrate judge at Flagstaff federal courthouse, 123 North San Francisco Street, Flagstaff, AZ 86001 (928-774-2566).
• A federal pretrial officer reviews background and ties.
• Release is granted with conditions, or the judge sets a detention hearing.
• The federal clerk processes any bond.

Federal custody is arranged by the Marshals: U.S. Marshals Service, 123 North San Francisco Street, Suite 101, Flagstaff, AZ 86001, 928-213-0135.

A detainer can delay it. Under 8 CFR 287.7, ICE may request that Holbrook keep a person up to 48 hours after they would otherwise be released. Navajo County has a 287(g) warrant service agreement, which means certain deputies are cleared to hand ICE warrants to people sitting in the county jail (100 East Code Talkers Drive, Holbrook, AZ 86025, 928-524-4316). Arizona's A.R.S. 11-1051 adds that counties must leave immigration enforcement unrestricted.
