Purgatory Correctional Facility Inmate Bail & Bonds

The Sheriff’s “Contact the Jail” entry identifies Purgatory Correctional Facility, 750 South 5300 West, Hurricane, UT 84737, and 435-656-6600. Its patrol office is separately listed at 620 South 5300 West, Hurricane, UT 84737, 435-656-6500. Non-emergency dispatch is 435-634-5730; those patrol and dispatch numbers are not offered as alternative jail extensions.

The contact page’s weekday office hours do not establish a universal booking, visiting or bail-counter schedule. The Sheriff also publishes book-and-release services separately. Keep a court-directed reporting instruction distinct from an assumption that every citation or city arrest requires admission at the adult jail.

The bail section gives four routes: cash delivered to staff, a credit card at the lobby kiosk, the telephone service at 866-516-0115, and the Sheriff-designated online bail service. The inmate orientation additionally describes cashier’s checks, cash and cards depending on bail requirements, and excludes personal checks.

Those are published options, not assurance that a particular amount will resolve every hold or that every payment channel is working at this moment. The receiving order still matters. The adult jail is 750 South 5300 West, Hurricane, UT 84737; ask 435-656-6600 which permitted route fits the person’s actual release condition before authorizing payment.

Yes: the orientation says an inmate’s account can be used for commissary, medical expenses, approved mail orders or posting bail. It would be wrong to say that account funds can never be applied to bail. It would also be wrong to treat a deposit receipt as proof that bail has actually been posted.

The separate funds page lists cash/card deposits at the jail kiosk and Sheriff-designated inmate account deposits. It restricts funding several inmates without approval, and a person on one inmate’s approved visiting list may not fund another inmate. The orientation bars transfers between inmates. For account-specific instructions use sending money; the jail contact is 435-656-6600, 750 South 5300 West, Hurricane, UT 84737.

Early authority under § 77-20-204 is tied to the stage preceding submission for probable cause. For the misdemeanor branch, the applicant needs the required written promise of attendance and no available recognizance alternative; domestic-violence and DUI exclusions also apply. Local B/C ordinance violations have their own branch.

The third-degree branch puts attendance at the center of the decision and disqualifies the specified applicants already on release, parole or probation. The official’s power stops when a magistrate begins probable-cause review. A specified Corrections hold of up to 72 hours prevents this early release route. This statute is not a local promise of immediate release after payment.

The early eligible felony ceiling is $5,000. State misdemeanors at A/B/C have limits of $1,950/$680/$340; qualifying local B/C ordinances have $150/$80 limits. For charges from the same arrest, the statute does not permit a stack of amounts beyond the highest applicable ceiling.

At the judicial stage, § 77-20-205.5 uses $5,000 for third degree and $10,000 for second; first degree has a $20,000 general reference and a $25,000 mandatory-minimum reference. In that judicial list, $350 corresponds to a C misdemeanor, $700 to B, $2,000 to A and $130 to a state infraction. For a local ordinance, the comparable judicial references run $150 for B, $80 for C and $25 for an infraction. These legal stages must not be confused with a purchasable capital-release price.

The order issued at the interim step under § 77-20-205 is distinct from the full pretrial decision. When deciding the judicial condition, the magistrate uses the schedule as directed but owes no deference to the jail’s earlier number. The case receives one financial condition after an independent assessment of resources and the risk of nonappearance.

Relevant circumstances include the allegation, finances, personal history, community connections, health, past appearances and existing supervision. A risk tool alone does not settle the decision. The statute’s mandatory interim felony provision also requires its particular substantial-evidence and prior-felony conditions. The provision referring specifically to an agreement or order under § 78B-7-802 should not be expanded to every accusation involving a protective order.

Rules 7 and 7A allow an initial request to modify release with notice that gives the opposing party preparation time and protects victim participation. They do not impose an unpaid seven-day wait or automatically presume inability to pay when seven days pass. Later motions must rest on a material change, rather than merely repeating the first request.

Use the court handling this case, not a generic detention-account service. Fifth District contact is 435-986-5700, 206 West Tabernacle, Suite 100, St. George, UT 84770; County Justice is 435-301-7480, 197 East Tabernacle Street, St. George, UT 84770. A request to change release is not itself a changed order, and resolving one case does not necessarily end another lawful basis for custody.

R590-196 sets the opening premium floor at 10% and its ceiling at 20%, measured against the bond amount. The maximum document-set fee is $20 and a credit-card charge cannot exceed 5%. For a late installment, compare a $20 charge with 5% of the overdue payment: only the lesser amount is permitted.

The written disclosure explains the nonrefundable premium and fees, co-signer obligations, collateral and conditions for revocation. The surety agreement governs a private transaction; depositing bail with the government follows a different set of obligations. Do not assume a deed, equity percentage or particular property-bond procedure is accepted merely because a surety might request collateral.

Sections 77-20-401 and 402 govern money received as bail and its later accounting. Applicable criminal-accounts-receivable deductions can reduce the amount returned; the current law distinguishes cash repayment, card credit and financial-transaction processing costs. The three-day forwarding requirement runs to the appropriate court, starting the day after receipt.

That forwarding period is not a three-day refund guarantee to a family. A private premium is subject to its nonrefund disclosure, while collateral return depends on the bond obligations. Likewise, an inmate-account balance has a different purpose until any authorized application to bail is actually made. Preserve the case and payment purpose rather than combining these accounts.

The city of Enterprise says its Justice Court is being handled by County Justice. Enterprise City Hall is 375 South 200 East, Enterprise, UT 84725, 435-878-2221; that is not presented here as an independent current hearing venue. Use County Justice’s own contact above for its docket.

The state directory also contains a guardian-ad-litem office and a kiosk, neither of which is an additional trial court. Hurricane’s own page describes B/C and infraction jurisdiction including offenses at Purgatory; it does not take over felony jurisdiction simply because the person is in that jail.

County Justice instructs a defendant to ask the judge at the hearing and submit an Affidavit of Indigency for review. Contact that clerk at 435-301-7480, 197 East Tabernacle Street, St. George, UT 84770. For a qualifying District case use 435-986-5700, 206 West Tabernacle, Suite 100, St. George, UT 84770; appointment depends on the case and financial eligibility.

The county describes an indigent-defense management role covering District, Juvenile and County Justice courts. This management structure does not assign a lawyer to the defendant, nor does it establish a single provider for all municipal dockets. The defense advocate is not the prosecutor. Court clerks provide procedural help, not the private legal advice of appointed or retained counsel.

Court Support Services publishes pretrial monitoring of court-ordered conditions, risk/needs assessments, community referrals and probation-related supervision. Its contact office is 251 East 200 North, St. George, UT 84770, 435-301-7310. Its listed support areas include treatment, housing, work and medical resources.

These are supervision and support functions, not promises of admission to a program, a particular treatment placement, or cancellation of a release condition. A court order still governs. The Sheriff’s separate book-and-release listing also must not be substituted for the current court notice or assumed to be the same service as community supervision.

The Juvenile Court clerk is 435-986-5730, 206 West Tabernacle, Suite 125, St. George, UT 84770. The state youth map identifies Washington County Youth Center at 330 South 5300 West, Hurricane, UT 84737, 435-627-2800. It lists distinct youth services, including home detention; that does not establish a locked placement for a particular child.

Do not apply adult bail schedules, adult roster entries or adult account and visit rules to a youth inquiry. The juvenile case and intake directions determine the appropriate service. A youth center’s shared county name and nearby street are not evidence that it is an adult jail wing.

Corrections lists Washington among its Inmate Placement Program county partners. Purgatory’s orientation describes state contract inmates and a departmental case manager contacted through an inmate request. These sources establish a housing relationship, not the location of every sentenced person or an automatic move to a prison after sentencing.

The Utah Corrections offender search covers current departmental supervision and expressly excludes unsentenced county-jail detainees. See the separate Utah prison system for state custody. A state sentence, departmental supervision and a physical transfer are related questions but not interchangeable answers.

On the federal jurisdiction map, Washington belongs to the Central Division’s Southern Region in the District of Utah. The St. George courthouse page identifies 197 East Tabernacle Street, St. George, UT 84770, as its new temporary location and publishes 435-703-7308 as the District Court Clerk’s Office. The location directed in the federal notice controls the appearance.

Federal detention has its own judicial decision. Marshals responsibilities span detention arrangements, prisoner movement and, following conviction, delivery for service of the sentence. The federal BOP locator concerns BOP records, not all federal pretrial housing. Paying a county matter does not discharge the federal authority, and these national functions do not prove a current Purgatory federal-housing contract.

An immigration detainer can affect when someone leaves local custody. Ask the holding agency what it has received and whether a transfer is pending. Counsel can check how the request applies to this case. Use the ICE detainee locator for immigration custody.

For an actual transfer, the ICE Online Detainee Locator takes a nine-digit A-number with birth country, or an exact first/last-name and birth-country search; it excludes under-18 records. The Utah ICE administrative office is 2975 Decker Lake Drive, Suite 100, West Valley City, UT 84119-6096, 801-736-1200. That office is not a housing destination. Utah § 17-72-505(5) addresses its covered felony/class-A sentence-completion notice and transfer, not every arrest.
