If there may be a warrant for your arrest in Sonoma County or anywhere in California, or you need information about a court case involving you, a friend, or a relative, the California Superior Court is a good place to start.
Most criminal defendants in Sonoma County, as in the rest of California, have a constitutional right to pretrial release on bail, though certain capital and violent felony cases are excluded. The California Supreme Court has made clear that bail must reflect a defendant’s ability to pay, and that no one can be held just because they can’t afford bail unless a judge finds no less restrictive condition would keep the public safe or ensure a court appearance. Judges also may not factor in whether the defendant wants a jury trial (Rule 4.101).
For an inmate’s bail amount, the simplest option is to call the Sonoma North County Detention Facility at 707-565-1400. If you know the offense they were arrested for, you can also find it on the Sonoma County bail schedule. Cash, surety bonds, and property bonds are all accepted in this county.
