About Public Intoxication Charges
A public intoxication charge generally involves being drunk in public to the point of being unable to care for oneself. The exact charge, and whether it is treated as a misdemeanor or a felony, varies with the facts and is decided by prosecutors and the court. Some people are released once sober.
Palmdale Booking, Jail and Court
Arrests in Palmdale are made by LA County Sheriff — Palmdale Station. Depending on the charge and the agency, a person may be held at Men's Central Jail or Twin Towers Correctional Facility. Criminal cases from the area are heard at Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center and Michael D. Antonovich Antelope Valley Courthouse. For a public intoxication charge the first step is to get the inmate booking number and confirm the bail amount with the facility.
How Bail Is Set for Public Intoxication Charges
Bail for a charge like this usually comes from the county bail schedule at first. At a hearing a judge may raise, lower or keep that amount, and some charges must be reviewed by a judge before any release. The court sets bail, not the bondsperson.
