If a Loved One Has Just Been Booked
Most Solano County arrests are processed through the Justice Center Detention Facility on Union Avenue first, then transferred to Claybank or Stanton based on classification. To confirm where your loved one is currently held, check the Solano County Sheriff’s online roster or call (707) 784-7100 for the Justice Center or (707) 784-7181 for Claybank.
A few things worth knowing in those first hours:
- All inmate phone calls are recorded. Don’t discuss what happened over the jail phone.
- Arraignment typically happens within 48 hours of arrest, excluding weekends and holidays. Solano County criminal cases are heard at the Solano County Hall of Justice in Fairfield.

Bail and Release
Bail amounts are set by the Solano County bail schedule. Bail can be posted in cash or through a licensed bail bondsman. An attorney can request a bail hearing to argue for reduction or release on own recognizance (OR release). For lower-level offenses, release on a citation may be available.
