The Bail Process at the Central Detention Center in San Bernardino County
If you are arrested in San Bernardino, California or the surrounding area you will be taken to the San Bernardino Jail, officially known as the Central Detention Center. There, you will be held until you post bail, are released on your own recognizance, or stand trial. It can be upsetting and difficult when you find yourself being arrested. But, any time you interact with law enforcement officers, it is important to remember to stay calm and not make the situation any worse than it already is. Remaining calm during the interaction with police can avoid additional, and more serious, charges, such as assault and battery against a police officer.
If you are arrested, remember:
- Cooperate with police officers, physically. Don't resist them, even if they feel the need to restrain you.
- Speak as calmly as possible, if you choose to answer their questions.
- Don't speak to or yell at any other involved party.
- Conduct yourself in a dignified way, allowing the officers to see that your behavior was only what was necessary.
If you are arrested in Banning, California, the arresting officer should inform you of your Miranda Rights:
- You have the right to remain silent – They can't make you talk, other than to provide your name, address, and show some sort of identification, upon request.
- Anything you say can be used against you – If you choose to talk to the authorities, the statements you make can be used against you in court.
- You have the right to an attorney – You can ask to have an attorney present while they question you. If you ask for an attorney but continue to talk to the officers, while you wait for your attorney, the answers you give can still be used against you.
- If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you – If you cannot afford an attorney, but would like to have one, the court will appoint an attorney for you, free of charge.
24 Hour Bail Bonds Services at the Central Detention Center
Bail is an amount of money that the court holds onto in order to ensure that a person shows up for court dates and hearing, etc. The amount of bail that is required will vary depending on the charges. The bail schedule is set in for each county and should be posted at the Central Detention Center where you can find out how much bail you will need to post.
To figure out how much bail you will need:
- First, find the charge that carries the highest potential jail time and fines.
- Use that charge to determine the basis of the bail.
- Now find any “enhancements” or additional charges and the bail that applies to those enhancements.
- Add all of that together to find the total amount of bail that will be required.
