Delta County Jail Policies and Procedures

Intake Procedures

The intake procedure at the Delta County Jail takes you through the following steps:

You will be placed in a waiting area or cell. If there are a lot of arrests, you will have to wait a while to get processed.

The first thing you will have to to is you have to answer some simple questions, like your full name, home address, date of birth and a contact person, and you will also be asked about your medical and mental history. Next, you’ll be given an inmate ID and your fingerprints will be taken. Then, all of your personal property will be taken away from you and will be stored until you are released.

They will let you make a telephone call so you can contact a member of your family, friend, or somebody else who can help you get out.

If you are expected to be released quickly, you might be allowed to skip the jumpsuit and keep wearing your own clothes, but if you are not expected to make bail quickly you will be issued a jail uniform – the jumpsuit.

Discharge Procedures

Once you are able to post bail, you will get discharged from jail. This process will take anywhere between 30 minutes to quite a few hours.

How quickly you get discharged might depend on whether or not you’ve got a cash bond or if a magistrate has to figure out the bail amount. For a minor charge, you will be booked and get released without having to post bail. If you have served a sentence in jail and have a date of your release, plan to be discharged in the morning.

How To Send Money to an Inmate at Delta County Jail

You will have your own ‘bank account’ while in jail. This money is used to purchase items from the Commissary. Family and friends can deposit money into this account for you, and any money you earn while in prison will also be deposited into your account. Outside money can be paid in to your account via a money order, cash or check. If someone sends a check or money order, make sure that they write your inmate ID on it. The maximum amount you are allowed in your account is $290 per month.

Guidelines For Sending Money To An Inmate

Before you send any money you should find out what online money transfer companies the jail your inmate is incarcerated in uses. The exact method that the Delta County Jail uses changes frequently, so it is best to call them at (970) 874-2021 to get the current payment method.

You may be required to be on the inmate’s visitation list in order to send them money, and be aware that they may have a limit on how much you deposit at one time, like $200-300 at a time, or a limit on how much money may be in the inmate’s account at one time.

Some of the money transfer firms being used by various facilities include JPay, MoneyGram, AccessCorrections, OffenderConnect, Touchpayonline, JailATM, WU, smartdeposit, and tigercommissary.

If an inmate has fines or are required to pay restitution then they will be subject to garnishment of their commissary/trust account. If the inmate has a garnishment, then money to pay them will be taken from the inmateâ€™s bank account. In some cases it may be a percentage or the entire amount of the obligation, but the actual percentage depends on the circumstances. We recommend that inmates talk to the counselor at their facility and try to find out. You can also try to make an arrangement so that only a percentage of your commissary funds are taken, instead of all your funds take at one time.

Commissary

The commissary is the Delta County Jail store. Inmates can buy a number of things here, like personal items, food, and things for writing. Bear in mind that you will most likely need to buy things from the commissary every day, and any infractions will get that privilege taken away from you.

These items include clothes, shoes, small snacks and other food items, in addition to personal hygiene products including soap, shampoo, and disposable razors for shaving. The commissary also sells other things like books and magazines, televisions and radios, playing cards, headphones, MP3 players, and electronic tablets. They also sell everything need to write home to family, friends, and loved ones: paper, envelopes, and stamps. If an inmate is indigent and cannot afford paper and stamps, the jail will provide these things to an inmate who has not had any money in their commissary account for at least 30 days.

The rates are posted and there are at least two types of prices based on where the inmate is calling. The following three things 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.
