Two facilities, two agencies, one city. We post at both, 24 hours a day. 10% premium, 1% down on approved credit.

Why Choose Midnight In Orange

Licensed agents on every shift, honest answers about where your family member actually is, and financing built for families who didn't plan on an arrest this week.

01

Two Jails In One City — The Orange PD Facility Is Not Theo Lacy

This is the single most important thing on this page. The Orange Police Department is an independent municipal agency at 1107 N Batavia St, Orange, CA 92866, (714) 744-7444 — a city agency with a city booking operation and a city records desk. The Theo Lacy Facility at 501 The City Dr S, Orange, CA 92868 is an Orange County Sheriff's Department jail, one of the largest in the county, which the Sheriff lists at a maximum capacity of 3,442. Both are inside the City of Orange. They are run by different agencies, five miles and one bureaucracy apart. Being told "he's in Orange" answers nothing — Batavia Street and The City Drive are entirely separate custody questions, and calling the wrong one is how families lose an hour.

02

24/7 Availability

A licensed agent answers the phone at 3 a.m. on a Sunday the same way we answer at 3 p.m. on a Wednesday. Orange bookings do not wait for business hours, and neither do we.

03

Bilingual Agents

English and Spanish-speaking agents on every shift. Premium, cosigner obligations, and payment terms get explained in the language your family actually speaks.

04

No Collateral In Most Cases

Most bonds under $100,000 are written on a qualified signature alone — no property, no pink slip. Above that, collateral may be requested depending on the charge and how the cosigner qualifies.

05

Affordable Payment Plans

California fixes the premium at 10% of the bail. The down payment is what flexes — as low as 1% on approved credit, with the balance on a written plan.

06

Licensed & Accountable

California License #1846101, with a staffed office at 965 N Vignes St #5, Los Angeles, CA 90012 covering Orange — a real office with real agents, not a national call center routing your case to a stranger.

How Bail Bonds Work In Orange

An arrest by Orange PD begins at the city's own department. A continuing hold moves into the Orange County Sheriff's system — and in this city, that often means a jail down the road rather than out of town.

1

Arrest & Booking With The Orange Police Department

Orange Police Department officers make the arrest and initial processing runs through 1107 N Batavia St, Orange, CA 92866, (714) 744-7444. Prints, photograph, and record checks have to clear before a bond is accepted. Ask specifically whether the person is still at Batavia Street or has been transferred — in this city, the follow-up question is not hypothetical.

2

Charge Checked Against The Orange County Bail Schedule

Bail comes from the 2026 Uniform Bail Schedule of the Superior Court of California, County of Orange, approved by the judges under Penal Code §1269b(c) and effective January 1, 2026. Misdemeanors and infractions are scheduled here, unlike in San Bernardino County, and felony bail is computed per case from the highest single count plus enhancements. Larceny and fraud offenses use the scheduled amount or the loss amount, whichever is higher.

3

Call Midnight — We Confirm Where They Are

Call (213) 295-7796 with a full legal name and date of birth. We check the Orange city booking and the Orange County system, tell you where they are right now, and read back the exact bail amount and premium before you pay anything.

4

Qualification & Approval

A short cosigner conversation — employment, residence, and how the balance gets paid. Most approvals take minutes, and most Orange bonds require no collateral.

5

Bond Posted Where They Actually Are

We post at the facility holding the defendant, whether that's the city jail or the county jail system in Santa Ana, Orange, and Irvine after transfer. Release from a municipal booking area is usually faster; the county facilities run a processing queue that can take several hours, longer on weekends and holidays.

6

Payment Plan Begins

The remaining premium is paid on the written schedule agreed up front. No surprise fees, and we remind you of every court date so the bond stays in good standing.

Bail amounts for Orange arrests come from the Orange County 2026 Uniform Bail Schedule (effective January 1, 2026), the same county-wide schedule used for every other city in Orange County.

Orange County Release Categories
Penal Code §1270.1 prohibits release on any amount other than the scheduled figure, before a hearing in open court, for violent felonies, serious felonies, and a specified list including PC §243(e)(1), §273.5, §273.6, felony §422, and §646.9. At and after first appearance the court may set bail above or below the schedule under PC §1269b(b) and §1275, and must consider ability to pay under In re Humphrey (2021) 11 Cal.5th 135.

What Bail Bonds Cost In Orange

The premium is fixed by California law. The down payment is where we can help.

The Premium Is 10% — By Law

Bail premium rates in California are filed with and approved by the Department of Insurance under Cal. Ins. Code §1800. A bondsman quoting a Orange family less than the filed 10% premium as the total cost is quoting something they can't legally deliver.

The Premium Is Earned, Not Refundable

Once the bond is posted the premium is earned in full — whether the case is dismissed at arraignment or runs two years. That's the price of the surety, not a deposit held against the bail.

The Down Payment Is What's Negotiable

Down payments start as low as 1% of the bail on approved credit. The remainder of the 10% premium is financed on a written plan with fixed installments you agree to before signing.

Collateral Isn't Usually Required

Most Orange bonds under $100,000 are written on a qualified cosigner's signature. Larger bonds may call for collateral depending on the charge and the cosigner's file.

Bail Amount10% PremiumDown At 1%
$20,000$2,000$200
$50,000$5,000$500
$100,000$10,000$1,000

The 1% figure is a down payment on approved credit, not a discounted premium — the full 10% is still owed on the payment plan. For the full 1% through 10% tier comparison and who qualifies for each, see affordable bail bonds.

Orange Jails We Serve

The first two entries below are both inside the City of Orange and are operated by different agencies. Confirm which one has your person before you get in the car.

Orange Police Department Jail

1107 N Batavia St, Orange, CA 92866

(714) 744-7444

The independent City of Orange police department's headquarters and booking point. A municipal facility — explicitly NOT the Theo Lacy Facility, which is a county Sheriff's jail a few miles away at 501 The City Dr S in the same city.

Where Orange Arrestees Transfer

Theo Lacy Facility

501 The City Dr S, Orange, CA 92868

An Orange County Sheriff's Department jail located inside the City of Orange — one of the county's largest, listed by the Sheriff at a maximum capacity of 3,442. County-run, not city-run, and completely separate from Orange PD on Batavia Street.

Intake Release Center (IRC)

550 N Flower St, Santa Ana, CA 92703

The Sheriff's countywide booking and release point in neighboring Santa Ana. Many county-level Orange County releases finish here even when housing was at Theo Lacy.

OC Central Men's & Women's Jail

550 N Flower St, Santa Ana, CA 92703

Sheriff-operated housing on the same Flower Street complex as the IRC, holding much of the county's pretrial population.

Where Orange Cases Are Heard

Central Justice Center

700 Civic Center Dr W, Santa Ana, CA 92701

The Orange County Superior Court location designated for Orange's criminal and traffic matters under the Court Designation List effective June 30, 2025. In-custody defendants who do not bond out are transported here.

What We Need When You Call

Have these ready and we can locate the booking — city jail or county — and quote the premium on the first call.

01

Defendant's Full Legal Name

First, middle, and last as it appears on their ID. Nicknames slow the jail search.

02

Date of Birth

Prevents confusion when multiple people share the same name in the booking system.

03

City or County of Arrest

Tells us which jail to check first — Riverside, San Bernardino, LA, Orange, or San Diego.

04

Booking Number (If Available)

Not required, but if you have it, it speeds up locating the record considerably.

05

Cosigner Contact Info

Cosigner's name, phone, employer, and general credit range — this is what determines your financing terms.

06

Your Relationship to the Defendant

Family, friend, or coworker — helps us know who to loop in on updates and paperwork.

Most Common Bail Charges In Orange

Bail is set by the Superior Court of California, County of Orange schedule, not by the city — so a Orange booking starts from the same figures as one anywhere else in the county. The ranges below are county schedule ranges, not city-specific numbers.

DUI

VC §23152

County schedule range: $5,000 – $100,000

A first misdemeanor DUI sits at the low end of the schedule and can sometimes release on citation. Priors, injury, or a high BAC push the amount up fast.

View Page

Domestic Violence

PC §273.5

County schedule range: $50,000 – $100,000

Corporal injury filings book high and usually come with a protective order at arraignment. Release conditions matter as much as the bond — we walk cosigners through both before anything is signed.

View Page

Drug Possession & Sale

HS §11350, HS §11351 / §11352

County schedule range: $10,000 – $100,000+

Simple possession books low and often qualifies for diversion. Possession for sale and transportation book far higher, and weight or priors move the number quickly.

View Page

Assault & Battery

PC §240 / §245(a)(1)

County schedule range: $25,000 – $50,000

Simple battery books at the low end. Assault with a deadly weapon is a strike-eligible felony and books substantially higher, often with additional enhancements filed.

View Page

Theft & Burglary

PC §484/§487 and PC §459

County schedule range: $20,000 – $50,000

Petty theft books low; grand theft and first-degree residential burglary book substantially higher and carry felony jail or prison exposure. Burglary has its own dedicated page on this site.

About Orange

The City of Orange sits in the middle of the county, bordered by Anaheim, Santa Ana, Villa Park, and Tustin, with the 22, 55, and 57 freeways converging near its western edge. It is best known locally for the Old Towne Orange historic district and traffic circle, and for the medical and retail concentration around The City Drive — Children's Hospital of Orange County, UCI Medical Center, and the Outlets at Orange all sit in that corridor.

That same corridor is where the Theo Lacy Facility sits, at 501 The City Dr S. This is the detail that trips up more Orange families than anything else: the city has its own independent police department at 1107 N Batavia St, (714) 744-7444, and hosts a major county jail. A city booking on Batavia Street is not a county booking on The City Drive. Different agency, different records desk, different release procedure, different drive. It is the same two-facilities-one-city trap that Santa Ana families hit with the city jail versus the Intake Release Center, and we treat it the same way here — ask which one, always, before anyone leaves the house.

Orange cases are filed in the Superior Court of California, County of Orange, with bail set from the county-wide 2026 Uniform Bail Schedule. Criminal and traffic matters arising in Orange are designated to the Central Justice Center at 700 Civic Center Drive West in Santa Ana, under the Orange County Superior Court Court Designation List effective June 30, 2025. What we confirm immediately on the phone is the facility, the scheduled bail for the actual charge, and whether PC §1270.1 freezes that figure until a judge sees the case.
