Any adult (18 or older) can post security 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for an adult in custody held in the NORCOR jail. (Bail cannot be posted by another adult in custody) Security is normally called bail.

You must present official picture identification (such as a driver’s license, state ID card, or passport) and not be under the influence to drugs or alcohol when posting security.

IF YOU ARE THE VICTIM, YOU MAY POST BAIL, HOWEVER; YOU MAY NOT BE PRESENT AT TIME OF RELEASE.

To find out an adult in custody’s security amount go to the Adults in Custody page or call 541-298-1576 to inquire with NORCOR Staff. Normally the amount shown is 10% of the security amount. However, for some traffic violation charges, it may be the full security/bail amount. In any case, the amount shown is what must be paid.

The security/bail needed may change at any time because of changes in the charges, or a court’s actions regarding the security amount.

There are 4 ways to post bail:

Through the arraigning Court during regular business hours.

IF POSTING AT THE ARRAIGNING COURT: PLEASE CONTACT THE COURT FOR POSTING INSTRUCTIONS & HOURS OF OPERATION.

NORCOR DOES NOT RELEASE BAIL FUNDS

When you post bail via the Telmate System, you are depositing to the adults in custody Bond account, those funds then become the property of the court & the adult in custody. The adult in custody may receive a refund of those funds after the court releases them in future hearings. It is the adult in custody’s responsibility to return funds posted on their behalf.

READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING BAIL DIRECTLY TO THE COURT

The Court will retain 15% of the amount deposited as security release costs. In no event will the amount be less than $5.00.

The Court may order that the security deposit be applied to any fines, costs, assessments, restitution, contribution, recoupment or other monetary obligations that are imposed on the defendant in this or any other case.

The Court may order that the security deposit be applied towards the defendant’s child support obligations and/or to provide security for future child support payments.

If the defendant fails to comply with the terms of the security release agreement, the Court may order that the security deposit be forfeited to the State of Oregon. The Court may also enter a judgment against you for the entire amount of the security set against the defendant. This is not limited to the amount you post.

No money will be refunded until the proceedings in this matter are completed and the Court enters an order releasing the funds. If the defendant is found guilty, no money will be returned until after sentencing. Unless the court orders otherwise, these funds will only be refunded to the person who made the deposit as shown on the receipt.

The Court may be required to notify the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Attorney’s Office if more than $10,000 is posted by any party.

Bail moneys are posted directly to the adult in custody’s account. These funds become the property of the adult in custody and are nonrefundable. It is the discretion of the adult in custody if they choose to post his/her own bail with these funds.

The security is subject to forfeiture if the defendant fails to appear in court as scheduled or violates the release agreement.

The court will retain 15% of the amount deposited as security release costs. In no event will the amount be less than $5.00.
