Note: The publicly available information for Karnes County Detention covers legal visit scheduling and urgent appointment contacts only. It does not include details about money deposit vendors, fees, hours, or processing rules. You'll need to contact the facility directly to confirm how to send funds.

Steps to Follow

  • For standard virtual legal visits, schedule online through an ERO eFile account using ICE’s Detention Facility Appointment Scheduler.
  • For exigent-circumstance legal appointments, email kccdc-bailiff@geogroup.com or call (830) 254-2500 and ask for the courtroom officer.
  • Before you send any money, ask the facility to confirm who handles detainee funds and which deposit methods they accept (online, phone, kiosk, or mail), since those details are not provided in the available facility documentation.

Before sending money, you'll need answers that aren't covered in the facility's public information. Call and ask: What deposit methods are accepted (online, phone, lobby kiosk, or mail)? What fees apply? What information do you need to include so funds reach the right person (full name, ID number, booking number)? Also ask about processing times, deposit limits, and whether weekends or holidays affect when funds are credited. If you reach the courtroom officer contact listed for urgent legal appointments, ask whether they can help with money questions or direct you to the right department.

  1. Start with the provided contact for urgent legal scheduling - Email kccdc-bailiff@geogroup.com or call (830) 254-2500 and ask for the courtroom officer, then ask who handles detainee trust accounts and money deposits.
  2. Get the exact deposit instructions - If they use an outside vendor or a specific process, write down the official name of the service, the accepted payment types, and the fee schedule.
  3. Confirm the required recipient details - Ask what identifiers must be used (name format, facility ID, booking number, or other required fields) and how long deposits take to post.
  4. Ask about timing and exceptions - Confirm cut-off times, weekend and holiday handling, and what to do if a deposit is rejected or delayed.

Warning: The facility's public documentation does not list any money-sending vendor, deposit address, fees, or hours. Contact Karnes County Detention directly to confirm the current process before you send payment or mail anything.
