Booking and Bail in California
Whether a person has been arrested for domestic violence, DUI, DWI or any other offense the process is the same. Persons taken into custody by the Escondido Police or Sheriff's Department will be held at either the Escondido Police Station Jail, Sheriff's Station Jail or will be transfered to the Los Angeles County Jail (IRC) and will be kept there until their first court date called the "Arraignment." Bail is allowed to be posted in any facility 24hrs a day, 7 days a week.
Before a bail bond is turned in and accepted, the arrestee must pass a background check through "Live Scan", which is a machine that is linked to a county, state and national database. That database will notify the authorities of any possible holds, warrants, or aliases that might prevent release or increase the total bail amount of an arrestee. Once the results of the Live Scan come back from the various government agencies, that person is then "cleared" to bond out. At this time, a jailor will review and accept a Bail Bond for an arrestee and release them on the Bail Bond.
From the time a Bail Bond is turned in, it takes between 30 minutes and 3 hours for a release depending on the facility where the person is being held. Release times do vary based on the workload of the Escondido jail's staff as well as the type of facility. Once out, a person will need to complete his or her part of the paper work, take a picture, and make sure to show up to each and every court date thereafter. It is recommended that you hire a Escondido criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible.
More about Escondido California
In addition to being bail bonds agents we are proud members of the Escondido community.
The Escondido area was first settled by Native American tribes. The Luiseño established campsites and villages along the creek running through the area. They named the place "Mehel-om-pom-pavo". The Kumeyaay migrated from areas near the Colorado River, settling both in the San Pasqual Valley and near the San Dieguito River in the southwestern and western portions of what is now Escondido. Most of the villages and campsites today have been destroyed by development and agriculture. Spain controlled the land from the late 18th century to the early 19th century, and established many missions in California to convert the indigenous people. When Mexico gained its independence from Spain, the local land was divided into large "ranchos." Most of Escondido occupies the former Rancho Rincon del Diablo. Rincon del Diablo ("Devil's Corner") was a Mexican land grant given to Juan Bautista Alvarado (distinct from the governor of the same name) in 1843 by Governor Manuel Micheltorena. Alvarado was a Regidor of Los Angeles at the time, and the first Regidor of the pueblo of San Diego. In addition, the southern area of Escondido occupies the former Rancho San Bernardo, granted in 1842 and 1845. The Mexican-American War began in 1846. The Battle of San Pasqual was fought southeast of Escondido, pitting Mexican Andrés Pico (brother of then-California-governor Pío Pico) against Americans Stephen W. Kearny, Archibald Gillespie, and Kit Carson. A park in Escondido is named for Carson.
