After an arrest
- Who decides release first
Police and the jail must cite and release most people arrested for misdemeanors. A person still held may post bail under the district court's bail process or schedule, or sees a district judge, who sets release conditions. A 2018 Judicial Council policy says it ended bail schedules statewide, but the rule still mentions them, so whether jails release on a money schedule is unclear.
