Could there be a warrant for your arrest in Calaveras County or anywhere in California? Do you need information on a court case that involves you, a friend, or a relative? The California Superior Court is the place to begin.

In Calaveras County and throughout California, most criminal defendants have a constitutional right to bail before trial, except in certain capital and violent felony cases. The California Supreme Court has held that judges must take a defendant’s ability to pay into account, and must consider less restrictive alternatives before keeping someone in jail because they can’t afford bail. Per Rule 4.101, judges may not consider whether the defendant wants a jury trial when setting bail.

Call the jail at 209-754-6499 for the easiest way to find an inmate’s bail at the Calaveras County Adult Detention Facility. If you know the offense the inmate was arrested for, you can also check the bail schedule for Calaveras County. The county accepts cash, a surety bond, or a property bond.

The Calaveras County Adult Detention Facility is licensed for 160 inmates, but it often has to make room for many more, especially on weekends. The monthly turnover rate at most city and county jails in California is at least 35-40% of the inmate population, with an additional 25-30% every 90 days and an additional 15-20% every six months. Approximately 8-9% stay incarcerated between six and twelve months. Inmates held longer than twelve months are usually facing serious charges such as rape or murder. Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county remain in one of the Calaveras County facilities much longer.

Calaveras County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 3,680 offenders every year.
