Temple City Bail Bonds

Temple City does not run its own police department. Policing is contracted to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department through the Temple Station, which is in the city itself.

Who makes the arrest in Temple City

There is no Temple City police department. The Sheriff’s Temple Station covers the city, at 8838 E. Las Tunas Drive, Temple City, CA 91780, published non-emergency number (626) 285-7171. Temple City is a city of about 36,000 residents in the San Gabriel Valley, Los Angeles County.

Published hours are counter hours, not custody hours. Bookings continue around the clock, and so do we. Hours change, so confirm before travelling.

Where someone is held

California classifies local detention facilities through the Board of State and Community Corrections. The LASD Temple City Station Jail is listed as a Type I facility, approved to hold juveniles as well as adults.

A Type I facility is built for short holds — people awaiting release, transfer or a first appearance — not for serving sentences. In practice one of two things happens: release from that facility, or transfer into Los Angeles County custody. Transfers happen without notice, so confirm the location the same day before you drive. See what kind of jail is holding them and jail transfers.

Which courthouse

The nearest courthouse we cover for this part of the San Gabriel Valley is Alhambra Courthouse. This courthouse handles criminal matters relevant to this area, but the defendant’s release paperwork and case record control the actual court assignment — read the document rather than assuming from the city. The full list is in the Los Angeles County courthouse directory.

Common questions

Can I post bail at the Sheriff’s station?

Some California facilities accept bail at the counter and some do not, and the practice changes. We confirm it for your case before you drive anywhere — call and we will check while you are on the phone.

How long will they be held?

The LASD Temple City Station Jail is a Type I facility under California Board of State and Community Corrections classification, built for short holds rather than long custody. If release does not happen there, the person is transferred into Los Angeles County custody. See what the jail classifications mean.

Is the arrest handled in Temple City?

Not necessarily. Policing is contracted to the Sheriff, so booking happens at the station rather than at a city facility. Confirm the location before travelling — see the Los Angeles County inmate search.

Which courthouse will the case go to?

Do not assume from the city. The courthouse is printed on the release paperwork or citation, and that document controls. See Alhambra Courthouse and the Los Angeles County courthouse directory.
