Lynwood, Los Angeles County

Bail Bonds In
Lynwood, CA

Lynwood incorporated on July 16, 1921 and had 67,265 residents at the 2020 Census. It sits in southeast Los Angeles County between Compton, South Gate, and Paramount.

The city contracts with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. The Century Station at 11703 S. Alameda Street, (323) 568-4800, is the arresting agency and also serves the unincorporated areas of Florence/Firestone, Walnut Park, Willowbrook, and Athens Park.

Lynwood is the one city in this network most directly tied to the county's women's jail. Century Regional Detention Facility — CRDF, at 11705 S. Alameda Street — is on the same Alameda Street complex as the Century Station, whose jail is sometimes still called the Lynwood Jail. Women arrested anywhere in Los Angeles County are generally housed at CRDF, not downtown, which is why a family searching downtown for a woman often cannot find her.

Men from a Lynwood arrest are processed at the Inmate Reception Center at 450 Bauchet Street downtown. Cases are heard at the Compton Courthouse, 200 W. Compton Blvd. The Bail Network posts bonds for Lynwood arrests 24/7 at the state-regulated 10% premium, with as low as 1% down for qualified cosigners.

Where Bail Is Set

Bail is set once booking is complete, regardless of whether the arrest came from LASD Century Station. Most bail amounts follow the countywide schedule set under Penal Code §1269b — not a city-specific schedule — and a judge can raise or lower it at arraignment. If you cannot locate your loved one right after a Lynwood-area arrest, call us and we will tell you exactly where they are.

Inmate Reception Center (IRC) — 450 Bauchet Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012

The Inmate Reception Center is the central intake point for the entire Los Angeles County jail system. It is not a Lynwood facility — but once the Sheriff's Century Station hands a booking to county custody, this is where the record is created and where the person actually is.

What happens here: booking, fingerprinting, photographing, and classification. Once someone is classified, they are assigned to a housing facility elsewhere in the county system — Men's Central Jail or Twin Towers downtown, or Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood for women. The IRC itself is a processing facility, not long-term housing, and it does not offer public visiting.

Processing at the IRC can take anywhere from a few hours to, in some documented cases, considerably longer before someone is fully classified and appears under an assigned facility. That is the single most common reason a search right after an arrest comes back empty — it does not mean the arrest did not happen.

Once bail is set — off the county schedule at booking, or by a judge at a later hearing — The Bail Network posts the bond directly at the IRC cashier, 24/7. This is also where bail is paid for anyone later transferred to the Pitchess complex in Castaic, since those facilities do not have their own cashier.

Bail Amounts In Lynwood — And What It Costs You

Bail set at booking follows Los Angeles County's uniform bail schedule adopted under Penal Code §1269b, so amounts in Lynwood match the countywide figures — there is no separate Lynwood schedule. Premiums are regulated under Insurance Code §1800 and typically run 10% of the bail amount.

State-Regulated Rate: 10%

Bail Payment Breakdown

Total Bail Amount10% Premium (Total Cost)1% Down (To Start)
$5,000$500$50
$10,000$1,000$100
$25,000$2,500$250
$50,000$5,000$500
$100,000$10,000$1,000

Examples only. The 1% tier requires approved credit and a qualifying cosigner.

How The Math Works

Bail is set at $25,000. California's regulated premium is 10%, so your cost is $2,500. The Bail Network posts the full $25,000 with the court. The premium is earned and non-refundable once the bond is posted — that is California Insurance Code §1800, not our policy. Qualifying families can arrange payment plans starting as low as 1% down.

What Bail Costs By Charge Level

Misdemeanor, petty theft, simple assault$1,000 – $10,000
DUI, drug possession$5,000 – $50,000
Domestic violence, felony assault$20,000 – $100,000
Felony theft / burglary$10,000 – $100,000
Serious violent felony (robbery, manslaughter)$50,000+
10%State-Regulated PremiumRate set under Cal. Ins. Code §1800

Legal Authority

Bail schedules are set by the Los Angeles County Superior Court judges in accordance with California Penal Code §1269b. Specific amounts may vary based on prior convictions and special circumstances.

Payment Plans — How Families Actually Pay

The premium is regulated, but how you pay it is not one-size-fits-all. Qualifying families can start as low as 1% down and pay the balance on a written schedule.

Payment Plans

Flexible schedules on the premium itself — ask about monthly arrangements built around what you actually earn.

Collateral Options

Many bonds, especially lower-tier misdemeanors and first-offense DUIs, do not require collateral at all.

Multiple Payment Methods

Visa, Mastercard, American Express, ACH bank transfer, Zelle, and cash.

The 10% premium is non-refundable once the bond is posted, regardless of the case outcome — that is California law (Insurance Code §1800), not Bail Network policy.

Qualifications

Who Qualifies — Bail Denial And Down-Payment Tiers

Misdemeanor Arrests — Almost Always Bailable

The county bail schedule adopted under Penal Code §1269b applies, so no judge is required for most cases. Release is often same-day once bail is set and the bond is posted.

Felony Arrests — Usually Bailable

Bail is commonly set at arraignment, and Penal Code §1270.1 requires a formal hearing before release on certain serious or violent felonies.

Bail-Denial Cases — Bail May Be Denied

Under Article I, §12 of the California Constitution, bail can be denied for capital offenses and for violent or sexual-assault felonies where the evidence is strong. In re Humphrey (2021) requires courts to weigh ability to pay before setting an unaffordable amount.

Domestic Violence — Protective Orders Apply

An Emergency Protective Order is often issued at arrest, with a longer Criminal Protective Order possible at arraignment. No-contact conditions typically apply on release — read them carefully before going home.

When Bail Can Be Denied

Under Article I, §12 of the California Constitution, bail can be denied for capital offenses, and for felonies involving acts of violence or sexual assault on another person, when the facts are evident and the presumption of guilt is great.

In In re Humphrey (2021), the California Supreme Court held that a court cannot set bail an arrestee is unable to afford without first considering their ability to pay and less restrictive alternatives. That argument is made at the bail hearing itself.

Payment Options

Down-Payment Tiers

1% is the lowest down payment we offer, but 5% is generally the sweet spot for bail bond payments.

  • 1%
    1% downLowest Down

    Strongest cosigner profile — good credit, long employment, homeowner or verifiable equity.

Lynwood FAQs

Does Lynwood have its own police department?

No. Lynwood contracts with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. The Century Station at 11703 S. Alameda Street, (323) 568-4800, is the arresting agency and also covers Florence/Firestone, Walnut Park, Willowbrook, and Athens Park.

Is the county women's jail really in Lynwood?

Yes. Century Regional Detention Facility at 11705 S. Alameda Street — the main Los Angeles County women's jail — sits in Lynwood, on the same Alameda Street complex as the Century Station, whose jail is sometimes called the Lynwood Jail. Women arrested anywhere in the county are generally housed here.

Which courthouse hears a Lynwood case?

The Compton Courthouse at 200 W. Compton Blvd — confirmed direct jurisdiction over Carson, Compton, Lynwood, and Paramount. Serious felony matters can move to Clara Shortridge Foltz downtown.

How much does a bail bond cost in Lynwood?

Bail follows the countywide Los Angeles bail schedule adopted under Penal Code §1269b. Premiums are regulated under Insurance Code §1800 and typically run 10% of the bail amount, with as low as 1% down for qualified cosigners. The amount that applies to a Lynwood arrest comes from that schedule, and the judge at Compton Courthouse can raise, lower, or release on own recognizance at arraignment.

Can everything be handled without visiting an office?

Yes. Paperwork is signed electronically, payment is handled remotely, and a licensed agent posts the bond at the facility holding your loved one. For Lynwood, that means nobody has to drive to a jail lobby to get the process started.
