Dermott Police Jail Policies and Procedures

Intake Procedures

The intake procedure at the Dermott Police Jail includes each of these steps:

They’ll put you in a holding cell. If the jail is really busy, you will have to wait, sometimes for many hours, before you get processed.

The first thing you will have to to is you must answer a number of questions, like your legal name, home address, birth date and an emergency contact person, and they’ll also ask about your medical and mental history. Next, you will be issued an inmate ID and you will be fingerprinted. Then, all of your personal property will get taken away from you and stored until you are discharged.

You will then be allowed to make a telephone call so you can call a member of your family, friend, or somebody else who can help you get out.

If you think you will get released quickly, you might be able to keep wearing street clothes, if not you will be issued a jumpsuit.

Discharge Procedures

When you pay your bail, you will get released from jail. Getting discharged from jail will take anywhere between 10 minutes to all day long. Or, simply, the quicker bail is posted, the faster you can get released from jail. Also, how fast you get released might depend on whether you’ve been given a cash bond amount or if the magistrate still needs to decide on your bail amount. For minor charges, you will be booked and get released without having to post bail. When you get to the end of your sentence and know the discharge date, plan to be discharged at any time that day – but usually in the morning.

The prices are posted and there are at least two types of prices based on where the inmate is calling. These three factors will determine the cost of an inmate phone call: Where you are located; Where your inmate is located, What type of phone number you have.
