Note: With a cash-only bond, plan on bringing the full bail amount in cash - partial payments or percentage-style arrangements won’t meet the “cash-only” requirement.

Cash-Only Bonds in North Las Vegas: What They Mean and Where to Pay

If you’re paying in person at the North Las Vegas Municipal Court, bail bonds can be posted from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Thursday. The Court accepts cash bail only during business hours, so timing matters - especially if you’re trying to get someone released the same day.

After court hours, head to the City of North Las Vegas Community Correctional Center. They accept bonds and bail for inmates until midnight, plus weekends and holidays. This is your go-to option if you're trying to post bail at night, on a weekend, or during a holiday.

  • During Court business hours (7 a.m.–5 p.m., Mon–Thu): go to the North Las Vegas Municipal Court to post bail in person.
  • If you’re posting cash bail: plan to do it during Municipal Court business hours.
  • After hours, weekends, and holidays (until midnight after Court hours): go to the North Las Vegas Community Correctional Center to post bonds/bail for inmates.
  • Before you rely on an after-hours trip: confirm on-site what forms of payment they can take for your situation.
  1. Try to handle it during Municipal Court business hours - cash bail is accepted at the North Las Vegas Municipal Court only during business hours.
  2. If it’s after hours, go to the Community Correctional Center - it accepts bonds/bail after Court hours (until midnight) and on weekends and holidays; once you’re there, ask staff what they can accept for a cash-only bond.
  3. Have a backup plan if you can’t complete payment - if staff can’t process what you need after hours, plan to return during Municipal Court business hours.

Tip: Don’t assume an after-hours location can handle every cash-only bond the same way. Verify with staff before you count on it as your only option.

Before you head out - especially after hours - call ahead to verify the exact payment method and process. Confirming what staff will accept for your specific cash-only bond saves you from making multiple trips.

  • Call or check with the North Las Vegas Municipal Court during business hours to confirm what you need to bring and when you can pay.
  • If it’s after hours, confirm with the North Las Vegas Community Correctional Center before you travel.
  • Bring the full cash-only bond amount.
  • Bring your photo ID and any case or warrant information you have (name, date of birth, case number if available).
