How can I go about bonding someone out?
If you are wanting to bond someone out you will need to know if they are being held on a Class "C" misdemeanor charge (i.e. FMFR, Public Intox, etc.)or on a warrant. If they are being held on a Class "C", you may post their bond here at the Police Department. You may pay by the following ways:
  • Cash (Exact Amount, we cannot make change)
  • Credit Card(MasterCard/Visa) for Rowlett PD charges only. The name on the credit card must match to the name on the Drivers License
  • Money Order(s) or Cashier's Checks made payable to the City of Rowlett.
  • Attorney Bonds may be posted. You will need to contact a Bail Bond Company to arrange this to be done.

    If the person is being held for a Class "B" or above charge, and the charge will be filed through Dallas County, you will either need to pay the money at Dallas County (Lew Sterritt) or go through a Bail Bonds Company. If you do not post a bond, then the inmate will be transferred to Lew Sterritt.

    If the person is being held for a Class "B" or above charge, and the charge will be filed through Rockwall County, you may post a Cash Bond at Rowlett PD. Only cash will be accepted. If you would like to post a Surety Bond, then you may contact a Rockwall County Bail Bonds Company to post the bond. Dallas County Bonds will be accepted.
