If you need to check on a warrant in Los Angeles County or anywhere in California, or find specific information about a court case involving you, a friend, or a relative, start with the California Superior Court.

California’s constitution guarantees most criminal defendants in Los Angeles County and elsewhere in the state the right to pretrial release on bail, with exceptions for certain capital and violent felony cases. The California Supreme Court has ruled that ability to pay must be part of every bail decision, and that less restrictive conditions should be used when they would protect the public and ensure the defendant appears in court. Judges may not consider a request for a jury trial when setting bail (Rule 4.101).

You can learn an inmate’s bail amount by calling the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station Jail at 661-260-4000. As long as you know the charge, the bail schedule for Los Angeles County is another option. The county accepts cash, a surety bond, or a property bond.

Even though the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station Jail is licensed for 25 inmates, it is often forced to accommodate many more, especially on weekends. In most city and county jails in California, at least 35-40% of the population turns over each month, another 25-30% every 90 days, and another 15-20% every six months. About 8-9% stay incarcerated between six and twelve months. Offenders who stay longer than a year are usually facing serious charges like rape or murder, and because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, anyone arrested in this county on such charges remains in one of the Los Angeles County facilities much longer.

Approximately 462,420 offenders are arrested and detained every year by Los Angeles County law enforcement agencies.
