 Stellar Teller Fees:

• CASH deposits charge a fee of $2.00

Make Unpaid Fine Payments During Non-Business Hours

If the inmate is being held only due to an unpaid fine, you may be able to make payment online directly with the court system. For paying online, visit Pay Fees and Fines.

Bond Payments May Not Be Returned

Relatives or friends posting bonds for an inmate should know that bond payments - rather than being returned - may be used for court costs, fines, attorney fees, restitution, or other payments related to the court process. The courts determine whether bonds are returned or applied to other costs.
