The best place to start if you think you have a warrant in San Bernardino 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 San Bernardino 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 Needles Jail at 760-326-9200. If you know the charge, you can also look up the San Bernardino County bail schedule. This county accepts cash, surety bonds, and property bonds.

The Needles Jail is licensed for 45 inmates, but it often must make room for many more, especially on weekends. Most city and county jails in California turn over at least 35-40% of their population monthly, 25-30% more every 90 days, and 15-20% more every six months, and about 8-9% remain six to twelve months. Inmates held longer than twelve months are usually facing serious charges like rape or murder. Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county remain in custody at one of the San Bernardino County facilities much longer.

Every year, approximately 171,960 offenders are arrested and detained by San Bernardino County law enforcement agencies.
