For ICE immigration cases, the primary electronic option that can directly affect someone's release is the Cash Electronic Bonds (CeBonds) webpage. This is where you post a bond for eligible detained individuals.

CeBonds isn't just for submitting payment. You can also verify bond information and sign up for electronic notifications, which helps you track what's happening after you submit.

Time window: Bond posting hours are 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the time zone where the person is detained. Plan around the detainee's local time, not yours.

If the person is at Torrance County Detention Facility and you need detainee-specific information, call (505) 452-4821 between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. Have the detainee's biographical information ready. Staff will ask for it to locate the correct record.

Steps to Follow

  • Use the Cash Electronic Bonds (CeBonds) webpage to post a bond, if the detainee is eligible.
  • Use CeBonds to verify bond information and set up electronic notifications so you can track updates.
  • Submit during bond posting hours (9 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the time zone where the detainee is held).
  1. Call Torrance County Detention Facility during phone hours: Use (505) 452-4821 between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m.
  2. Have biographical details ready: Be prepared to provide the detainee’s biographical information so staff can pull the right information.

What to Verify

  • Whether the detainee is eligible to have a bond posted through CeBonds.
  • Whether CeBonds is the correct method to use for the bond you’re trying to post.
  • That the bond posting hours you need to meet are still 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the detainee’s time zone.
  • If calling Torrance County Detention Facility, confirm the number and calling window (7 a.m. to 3 p.m.), and what biographical information they will require from you.

Double-check timing: The bond posting window is based on the detainee's time zone. If you're calling the facility for details, make sure you're calling within their listed phone hours.
