Yavapai County bail and bond: Prescott, Camp Verde and a web of local courts

Yavapai County is large, and it runs two jails for adults: the Prescott Detention Center (1200 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301) in the west and the Camp Verde Detention Center (2830 North Commonwealth Drive, Suite 105, Camp Verde, AZ 86322) in the Verde Valley. Both belong to the county sheriff's office (255 East Gurley Street, Prescott, AZ 86301). You can pay bail at either one at any hour, day or night. The Camp Verde line is 928-567-7734, and the Prescott line is 928-771-3260. Use Yavapai County Inmate Search to learn which building holds your person. Details on each jail are on the county's jail listing.

1. Which jail has my person?

The search tool above shows it for anyone already booked. If the name does not come up, call the Prescott Detention Center at 928-771-3260 (1200 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301) or the Camp Verde Detention Center at 928-567-7734.

2. Why do I see two Prescott addresses?

The sheriff's office headquarters is at 255 East Gurley Street, Prescott, AZ 86301. The adult jail is now in the Yavapai County Justice Center, 1200 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301, where the sheriff says a 144-bed facility replaced the small downtown jail. Some websites still list a "holding" jail on Gurley Street. Drive to Prescott Lakes Parkway for the jail, and call 928-771-3260 if a site tells you otherwise.

3. Is Yavapai bail paid after hours?

It is. The sheriff says both the Prescott jail (1200 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301, 928-771-3260) and the Camp Verde jail (2830 North Commonwealth Drive, Suite 105, Camp Verde, AZ 86322, 928-567-7734) take bail in person 24 hours a day. A court takes payment only during its own business hours, so a late-night arrest is usually handled at the jail. Carry photo ID plus the legal name. A booking number saves time, and the search tool lists it.

4. Does Yavapai take bail online or by phone?

The sheriff points families to GovPayNow. The pay location code is A001YN, and you will need the amount and the arrested person's name. For live help, call 1-877-392-2455, which reaches a specialist. If a page asks for a different code or sends you to another website, stop and ring the Camp Verde jail (2830 North Commonwealth Drive, Suite 105, Camp Verde, AZ 86322) at 928-567-7734 before paying.

5. Which payments work at the jail?

Both Yavapai jails take currency, money orders and bank-issued checks. Checks and orders are payable to the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office (255 East Gurley Street, Prescott, AZ 86301), with the inmate's name and birthday in the memo line. Major credit, debit, and prepaid cards work through the online service. The sheriff says checks and money orders are not taken by mail. For the bond rules on the jail (1200 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301, 928-771-3260) pages, see the county jail bail guides.

6. Which justice or city court has the case?

It follows where the arrest happened. Prescott Justice Court (120 South Cortez Street Room 103, Prescott, AZ 86303), 120 South Cortez Street, Prescott, AZ 86303, 928-771-3300, covers Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, Paulden, and nearby areas. Verde Valley Justice Court, 10 South 6th Street, Cottonwood, AZ 86326, 928-639-5820, covers Camp Verde, Clarkdale, Cottonwood, Jerome, Cornville, and Oak Creek. Mayer, Bagdad-Yarnell, and Seligman have their own justice courts. Cities such as Prescott Valley and Cottonwood also run municipal courts, so ask which one filed the case.

7. How fast do they see a judge?

Within 24 hours of arrest, under Arizona Rule 4.1. That first hearing is where a magistrate reads the charge and sets release terms. Felony cases then belong to Superior Court (120 South Cortez Street, Prescott, AZ 86303). The clerk's office in Prescott answers case questions at 928-771-3312, weekdays 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and the Camp Verde court office is at 928-567-7741.

8. Should I hire a bail agent?

That is up to you; any agent needs a state insurance license. Ask whether any of the agent's fee comes back if charges are dropped, what collateral is needed, who must sign, and the cost of a no-show, all on paper. Collateral is supposed to be returned when the person appears. Compare the fee against paying the full amount in cash, which the jail (1200 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301, 928-771-3260) also accepts.

↑ Back to the questions

9. Can I put up a home or land?

Some agents and courts take real estate as collateral. Whether the land must lie in Yavapai County, or only in Arizona, is a question to ask the clerk (120 South Cortez Street, Prescott, AZ 86303) at 928-771-3312 before you collect deeds. Expect that every owner must sign, and that a mortgage lowers what counts.

↑ Back to the questions

10. When will a judge refuse bail?

Arizona Constitution art. 2, section 22, and A.R.S. 13-3961 let a judge deny bail for capital offenses, sexual assault, and certain sex crimes against children when the proof is evident or the presumption great. It also lists certain serious felonies where probable cause shows the person lacks legal status. A felony defendant who is a serious danger may also be held after a hearing. Holds from probation or outside counties can also block release.

11. A tribal officer made the arrest. Whose jail is it?

Both local tribes use the county jails, according to a tribal detention contact list. A tribal member may face a tribal court or a county court, depending on the offense and the land. Call the jail (1200 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301, 928-771-3260) first to learn who filed the charge, then contact that court. Tribal courts set their own bond rules.

12. Can I get a county lawyer?

Short on money? Raise it with the magistrate at the opening hearing. The Yavapai County Public Defender's office is at 595 White Spar Road, Prescott, AZ 86303, 928-771-3588, open weekdays 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eligibility is the judge's call, so bring proof of income. A private lawyer can ask a judge to review the bail amount, which state law allows at any time.

13. Where do Yavapai teens go?

Detained youth go to the county juvenile detention center in Prescott, at 1100 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301. A county profile says it has 80 beds. Call juvenile probation at 928-771-3156 for status and hearing times. Juvenile cases are handled in the Juvenile Justice Center; the center (1100 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301) answers case questions at 928-771-3103. A judge, not a bail agent, decides whether a teen goes home.

14. Does commissary money count as bail?

They are separate. A deposit lands in a trust account for store items and calls. Bail goes through the pay channels above. Callers claiming to be deputies or bondsmen who want wired money are scammers.

↑ Back to the questions

15. What if court is missed?

Yavapai release papers say a violation can bring a quick warrant and cost the bail. Call the court that holds the case that day, and bring a lawyer. Prescott Justice Court (120 South Cortez Street Room 103, Prescott, AZ 86303) is at 928-771-3300, and Verde Valley Justice Court (10 South 6th Street, Cottonwood, AZ 86326) is at 928-639-5820.

16. Which police department do I call?

The jail (1200 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301) can name the arresting agency; that office has the report number. Prescott Valley police (7601 East Skoog Boulevard, Prescott Valley, AZ 86314, station line 928-772-9267) use 928-772-2700 for non-emergencies, and Cottonwood police (199 South 6th Street, Cottonwood, AZ 86326) use 928-649-1397.

17. A federal agency arrested my brother in the Verde Valley. Can I bond him out at Camp Verde?

Bond on a federal case goes only to federal court, outside Camp Verde and Prescott. Charges from the FBI, the Forest Service or other federal officers go to the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona, and for Yavapai County that means a trip to Phoenix:

  • He is taken to Phoenix federal courthouse, 401 West Washington Street, Phoenix, AZ 85003 (clerk 602-322-7200), where a magistrate judge holds the first hearing.
  • A pretrial officer interviews him about where he lives, his work and any record.
  • The judge sets release terms, or the government asks to keep him in until a detention hearing.
  • Any bond is arranged through the federal clerk in Phoenix.

The Marshals decide where federal defendants are held until the case ends. Phone U.S. Marshals Service, 401 West Washington Street, Suite 270, Phoenix, AZ 85003, 602-382-8768.

18. Will my brother be held for ICE at a Yavapai jail after bond?

He could be. Yavapai County has a 287(g) jail model agreement, which means some detention officers are trained to check immigration status and act on ICE detainers. Under 8 CFR 287.7, a detainer asks the jail to hold him up to 48 hours after they would otherwise be released. Arizona law, A.R.S. 11-1051, rules out county limits on that work.

Bond still pays for the Yavapai charge. If ICE moves him, the county court dates go on. The ICE Phoenix Field Office, 2035 North Central Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85004, 602-257-5900 handles cases here, and people are commonly sent to:

  • Eloy Detention Center: 1705 East Hanna Road, Eloy, AZ 85131 · 520-464-3000
  • Florence Service Processing Center: 3250 North Pinal Parkway, Florence, AZ 85132 · 520-868-5862
  • Central Arizona Florence Correctional Center: 1155 North Pinal Parkway, Florence, AZ 85132 · 520-868-9095

A visit to 1200 Prescott Lakes Parkway, Prescott, AZ 86301 puts you at the Prescott Detention Center, or simply call 928-771-3260.

20. Which Yavapai courthouse can I ring to confirm the bond?

  • Prescott courthouse on the plaza (Superior Court): 120 South Cortez Street, Prescott, AZ 86303 · 928-771-3312
  • Verde Valley courthouse: 2840 North Commonwealth Drive, Camp Verde, AZ 86322 · 928-567-7741
