Station Overview
East Los Angeles Station serves three contract cities — Commerce, Cudahy, and Maywood — along with a set of unincorporated communities: Belvedere Gardens, City Terrace, Eastmont, East Los Angeles itself, Saybrook Park, and Union Pacific.
One real detail worth knowing: Cudahy has contracted with this exact station since 2010, confirmed directly on the City of Cudahy's own website, after previously being served under a different arrangement. Families in Cudahy sometimes still call the wrong agency because of that history.
This is a densely populated service area with several small cities packed close together, so the practical question after an arrest is rarely which city it happened in — it is which station holds the person right now. For all of these communities, the answer is 5019 E. Third Street.
The station handles the arrest, the booking paperwork, and short-term holding. Nobody stays at a patrol station; bookings that are not resolved locally move into the county system downtown.

A patrol station is not a visiting facility. Once someone is in county custody, visits are scheduled through the Sheriff's Department system.
Cudahy, Maywood, and Commerce arrests all land here. If you are calling a city police department for one of these cities, you are calling an agency that does not have the person.
The county inmate search can come back empty for hours after an arrest here, because the county record is created downtown at intake rather than at the station.
Transport downtown can leave sooner than expected, and station-level timing is never guaranteed. Call as soon as you know about the arrest — we work the station and the downtown facility at the same time.

Arrest In The Station's Service Area
Deputies from this station cover three contract cities and the surrounding unincorporated communities. All of it is a Sheriff's arrest from the start.
Booking On Third Street
Identification, paperwork, and short-term holding happen at 5019 E. Third Street. Call (323) 264-4151 to confirm someone is there.
Bail Set From The County Schedule
Bail comes off the Los Angeles County bail schedule at booking, so it is postable immediately rather than waiting for arraignment.
Post Before Transfer — The Fast Path
A bond posted while someone is still at the station skips the downtown intake queue entirely. This is consistently the fastest outcome available.
Transfer To The Inmate Reception Center
Unresolved bookings transport to 450 Bauchet Street for full county booking, medical screening, and classification.
Classification, Housing & Release
Men are housed on the downtown complex after classification; women are generally housed at CRDF in Lynwood. Bonds at that stage are posted at the IRC cashier, open 24/7.
How To Post Bail Before County Transfer
Premium on a California bail bond is set by the rate filed with the Department of Insurance under Cal. Ins. Code §1800. The starting bail figure comes from the Los Angeles Superior Court’s felony and misdemeanor bail schedule, adopted under Penal Code §1269b, and review or reduction of that figure runs under Penal Code §1270.1.
Timing is the whole game at a patrol station. Bail posted before the transport downtown ends the matter in hours; bail posted after has to wait for county intake, medical screening, and classification.
Nobody needs to drive to Third Street or to Bauchet Street. Paperwork, signatures, and payment are handled remotely, and the bond is posted wherever the defendant actually is.
Because the figure comes off the county schedule at booking, there is no reason to wait for a hearing — and a judge can still adjust it or grant own-recognizance release at arraignment.
Qualifying cosigners can start as low as 1% down on approved credit.
If A Court Date Is Missed After Release
A bond written for East LA Station stays live through every appearance until the case resolves. A missed date can mean a forfeited bond and a bench warrant the same day, with a limited statutory window to bring the defendant back before the forfeiture becomes a judgment against the cosigner.

We do not publish a courthouse assignment for this station, because no official source confirms one by name.
Courthouse assignment not yet confirmed. The East Los Angeles Courthouse at 4848 E. Civic Center Way is a strong geographic candidate given the shared name and location, but it is not independently verified as this station's actual routing destination, so we will not print it as fact. Call us with the case and we will confirm the correct courthouse.

Bail FAQs
Does East LA Station really handle Cudahy?
Yes. Cudahy has contracted with this station since 2010, confirmed on the City of Cudahy's own website. If someone was arrested in Cudahy, this is the station to call — not a Cudahy police department, which does not exist.
Which cities does this station cover?
Commerce, Cudahy, and Maywood as contract cities, plus unincorporated East Los Angeles, Belvedere Gardens, City Terrace, Eastmont, Saybrook Park, and Union Pacific.
Which courthouse hears a case from this station?
Not confirmed by an official source we can cite. The East Los Angeles Courthouse is a strong candidate on name and geography, but we do not publish guesses as fact. Call us and we will confirm the courthouse for the specific case.
Is anyone held at the station overnight?
No. There is short-term holding for booking only. Anyone not released moves into the county system at the downtown Inmate Reception Center.
Can bail be posted before the transfer downtown?
Yes, and it is by far the fastest option. Bail is set from the county schedule at booking, so a bond can be posted immediately — before the transport leaves — and skip the downtown intake queue entirely.
