The best place to start if you think you have a warrant in Los Angeles County or anywhere in California, or need details about a court case involving you, a friend, or a relative, is the California Superior Court.

Criminal defendants in Los Angeles County and across California generally have a constitutional right to pretrial release on bail, apart from certain capital and violent felony cases. The California Supreme Court has held that bail decisions must account for a defendant’s ability to pay, and that no one should stay in jail simply because they can’t afford bail if less restrictive conditions would protect the public and ensure their return to court. Rule 4.101 also bars judges from considering whether the defendant has asked for a jury trial.

An inmate’s bail can be confirmed by calling the West Hollywood Jail at 310-855-8850. If you know the charge, you can also look up the Los Angeles County bail schedule. This county accepts cash, surety bonds, and property bonds.

The West Hollywood Jail is licensed for 25 inmates at any given time, but it often has to make room for more, especially on weekends. At most city and county jails in California, at least 35-40% of inmates turn over monthly, another 25-30% every 90 days, another 15-20% every six months, and approximately 8-9% stay six to twelve months. Stays longer than twelve months usually mean serious charges like rape or murder. Because those cases take time to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county are forced to remain in custody at one of the Los Angeles County facilities much longer.

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