Martin County Jail Inmate Search

In Martin County and every other Florida county, the state constitution gives most defendants the right to pretrial release on reasonable conditions, except in capital or life felony cases where the proof is evident, or when no conditions would keep the community safe. Minor misdemeanors and traffic offenses often end with a notice to appear rather than bail. Other bond amounts follow a uniform statewide schedule adopted each year by the Florida Supreme Court.

For an inmate’s exact bail amount, call the Martin County Jail at 772-220-7200. The Florida uniform statewide bond schedule for 2026 lists minimum bond amounts by charge, but each judicial circuit can set higher amounts, and the judge at first appearance has the final say. The county accepts cash, a surety bond, or a property bond, or may release an offender on personal recognizance.

The Martin County Jail at a glance:

• Licensed for 696 inmates, but often forced to make room for more, especially on weekends
• At least 35-40% of inmates at most city and county jails in Florida turn over monthly
• Another 25-30% turn over every 90 days
• Another 15-20% turn over every six months
• About 8-9% stay six to twelve months
• Those held longer than a year usually face serious charges like rape or murder

Because serious cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county on those charges remain in custody at one of the Martin County facilities much longer.

Every year, Martin County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 14,920 offenders.

How do you pay bail for someone who has been arrested in Martin County?

When an offender is arrested and brought to the Martin County Jail in Stuart for booking, there are several outcomes after being processed.

1. The offender will be released with no bail, promising to return on a specific date to appear before a judge in either Municipal or Martin County Court.
2. The offender is ordered to remain in jail until their court date.
3. The offender is allowed to be released after paying a specified bond or bail.  Call 772-220-7200 to get the exact amount.

The payment of an offender's bail or bond can take many shapes.

• A cash bond is paid in full at the jail's bonding window or the clerk of court, usually by cash, cashier's check or money order, and many jails also take debit or credit cards through a lobby kiosk or an online bond vendor for an added fee; bring the inmate's full name and booking number, and the jail's number is 772-220-7200.
• It can be paid using a bail company, licensed to do business in Martin County.
• Many courts accept land or a home as bond collateral; the owner shows clear title and equity of at least the bond amount, often double, using a deed and a recent tax or appraisal value, and the court that set bail approves the property.
