Phillips County Jail Inmate Bail & Bonds

Type the name into Phillips County Inmate Search first. The Phillips County Sheriff's Office also contracts with the Logan County Sheriff's Office for inmate housing, so people kept in custody are housed at the Logan County Detention Center, 110 North Riverview Road, Sterling.

If he is missing from the roster, phone the sheriff at 970-854-3644. Ask where he sleeps tonight and whether an outside agency has a hold on him.

Cash only. The county's jail page says inmates can be bonded at the Holyoke jail at the time of arrest and that only cash payments are taken there. Every other kind of bonding goes through the Logan County jail in Sterling. The county page lists no front-desk hours, so call 970-854-3644 before you drive over with money.

For a cash bond, the jail has six hours from the time the bond is set, the person is at the jail, and you say you are ready to pay. The Phillips County Sheriff's bonding policy sets the same six-hour goal for cash, personal recognizance, property, and bondsman bonds. Paying bond won't free someone who also carries another county's hold.

Town officers bring adult arrests to the county jail. For Holyoke or Haxtun arrests, ask the Sheriff's Office at 970-854-3644 where the person was taken. With the officer's report number in hand, check Phillips County Inmate Search.

Young people held by order of a court are sent to the Platte Valley Youth Services Center, 2200 O Street, Greeley, CO 80631, a state Division of Youth Services center that serves Phillips County. Juvenile bookings stay off the adult roster. A parent can ask the Holyoke clerk when the youth's first hearing is set and whether a lawyer has been named. Phillips teens facing a charge that could lead to detention get a public defender from the Sterling office, 124 North 2nd Street, at 970-522-5032, unless that office has a conflict. Bring school records, a work schedule and the names of adults who can supervise the youth at home, since the judge weighs who will watch him before deciding on release. Call the Phillips Combined Court clerk at 970-762-7010 for the detention hearing date and place.

Held Phillips youths go to the Platte Valley Youth Services Center in Greeley.

Cash posts at Holyoke at intake, a card payment can go through the Phillips County website, and other bond types run through Logan County.

Ten points:

• Clock: a bond order within 48 hours of reaching Interocean Avenue.
• PR bond: release on a written promise, nothing paid.
• Cosigner: a second adult signs and owes the amount on a no-show.
• Cash: the full sum, returned when the case wraps up.
• Surety cap: an agent may take 15 percent or $50, the higher figure, and no more.
• Real estate: Colorado land holding equity of 1.5 times the bond.
• Small charges: petty and traffic counts block a cash-bond demand.
• Later fees: the $10 bond fee and 3.5 percent card charge can't hold up release.
• Online card: HB25-1015 lets Phillips relatives pay cash bond online with a credit card.
• Denial: Amendment I (2024) permits it in first-degree murder with evident proof.

C.R.S. 24-76.6-102 (https://content.leg.colorado.gov/sites/default/files/images/olls/crs2024-title-24.pdf) says a civil ICE detainer alone gives Phillips deputies no power to hold him. When the state case allows release, he leaves Holyoke; ICE acts under separate federal power.

The northeast plains fall under the ICE Denver Field Office, 12445 East Caley Avenue, Centennial, CO 80111, 720-873-2899. The ICE Online Detainee Locator System (https://locator.ice.gov/odls/) needs an A-number and birth country.
