How to Post Bail and When Your Loved One Will Be Released — Sutter County Jail
Getting someone out of Sutter County Jail comes down to two things: where to post bail (and what payment methods work), and how long the release process actually takes.
You can post bail at the jail lobby control room. Head to the Jail Lobby and contact the control room deputy to start the process.
- ✓ U.S. currency (cash)
- ✓ Cashier’s check
- ✓ Money order
- ✓ Personal checks are not accepted
Paying with a cashier's check or money order? Make sure it's made payable to "Sutter County Consolidated Courts" - the jail won't accept it otherwise.
If paying the full bail amount isn't realistic, a bail bond agency is another option. This is separate from paying cash, cashier's check, or money order through the jail lobby.
Sentenced inmates are processed out at 5:00 a.m. on their release date. Once processed, they're released into the front lobby.
Court-ordered releases happen as quickly as possible, but timing varies based on how busy the jail is. Most court releases are completed by 7:00 p.m.
Planning pickup? Match your timing to the type of release. Sentenced releases happen at 5:00 a.m. - the person walks out into the front lobby. Court-ordered releases can take longer and may not wrap up until 7:00 p.m., so the wait varies quite a bit depending on the situation.
Tip: If your timing is tight, call the jail lobby control room before heading over. Court-ordered releases depend on operations and may not finish until 7:00 p.m.
