Mendocino County Jail Inmate Locator (New World booking log)

Public Defender Inmate Locator (checked 2026-09-12) links Mendocino County Jail Inmate Locator at mcle1.mendocinosheriff.com/NewWorld.InmateInquiry/Mendocino and CIRIS for CDCR. Sheriff Publications lists the same New World log (also as http://50.230.66.240/NewWorld.InmateInquiry/Mendocino). Use the hostname first. Jail411 does not host inmate names. If the log does not show the person, call (707) 463-4411. This log is the adult jail only — it will not find a youth at 585 Low Gap Road.

Before you leave home

Three things to confirm before the trip.

Video visits are scheduled on GettingOut. In-person hours are not printed on the live Corrections page — call before you drive to 951 Low Gap Road.

  1. 01Confirm custody

    Search the New World booking log, or call (707) 463-4411.

    Official locator: mcle1.mendocinosheriff.com/NewWorld.InmateInquiry/Mendocino. Ask whether the person can have video and on-site visits — classification, housing, or discipline can block them.

  2. 02Video vs on-site

    Schedule video on GettingOut. Call staff only for in-house visiting.

    Remote video 7 days per week at gettingout.com. Helpline 1-866-516-0115. Sheriff staff cannot help with video. They will help with on-site visiting.

  3. 03Right door

    951 Low Gap Road — not 585, not 501.

    Jail and Sheriff administration share 951 Low Gap. Juvenile Hall is 585 Low Gap. County website footers print 501 Low Gap (campus). Courthouse is 100 North State Street.

Use the inmate-mail address below. Include the person’s name and booking number, and add your full return address.

Use this exact inmate-mail route

Mailing address

Do not send cash or money orders in the mail. Do not send youth mail here. Do not send adult-jail mail to 585 Low Gap, 589 Low Gap (Adult Probation), 579 Low Gap (Pretrial), or Parlin Fork camp.

Generally allowed
  • Follow the Sheriff Friends & Family Communication flyer (PDF linked from Corrections, November 2025 uploads path) for what may be mailed
Do not send
  • Cash or money orders sent through the mail (Corrections Money & Property: will not be accepted)

The live Corrections HTML (checked 2026-09-12) does not print a street or P.O. Box envelope address. It links “New Mail and Telephones information is here” to FF-COMMUNICATION.pdf. Open that flyer for how to address a letter. Do not assume 951 Low Gap Road is inmate mail — physical street and inmate mail often differ in this state.

Postage when someone has no money: Telephone and mail rules are in the Communication PDF. Phone/video vendor on the Visiting accordion is ICSolutions / GettingOut.

Money and commissary

How to send money to Mendocino County Jail.

The published deposit route is mycarepack.com / jail lobby kiosk. Confirm the person is still housed here and keep the booking number ready before depositing.

  1. 01

    Internet: mycarepack.com (Sheriff Corrections Money & Property, checked 2026-09-12).

  2. 02

    Jail lobby kiosk 24 hours a day. Deposits may take up to 72 hours to process.

  3. 03

    Deposit before 11:00 a.m. Tuesday if the person needs the money for commissary that Wednesday.

  4. 04

    Cash or money orders sent through the mail will not be accepted.

Release and property

Bail, property, and commissary pickup

01Bail

Cash, certified check, money order, or bond — 2026 court schedules

Sheriff Corrections Bail (checked 2026-09-12): post the entire amount in cash, certified check, money order, or a bail bond. Personal checks are not accepted. Certified check or money order must be made out to the Court of Jurisdiction. Out-of-county warrants the same way. 2026 Felony and Misdemeanor Bail Schedules are linked from Corrections (PDFs dated 08/06/26) and from the court at mendocino.courts.ca.gov/forms-filing/bail-schedules. Confirm the person is still here on the New World log or (707) 463-4411. Posting a bond does not guarantee release if a probation, parole, or out-of-county hold applies. An ICE detainer alone is not a lawful California hold (Gov. Code § 7284.6). This is the process, not a bondsman directory.

02Property

Jail will not take property in; release clothing only via attorney

Jail will not accept property for any inmate. Inmates may release property excluding clothing. Only people sentenced to state prison may release all of their property. Court clothing through the attorney or Facility supervisor. Money release: Monday–Friday 8:00 a.m.–noon and 1:00–4:15 p.m. excluding holidays; ID plus the bill being paid. Cash balance will not be handed out.

03After release

No releases 10:00 p.m.–8:30 a.m.; money-release window weekdays

Not published as a leftover-funds pickup recipe beyond the money-release window above. Ask (707) 463-4411. Releases: no releases 10:00 p.m. through 8:30 a.m. Booking can take several hours. People arrested intoxicated stay until they are no longer under the influence. Court releases usually two to four hours after return from court.

After booking

Court, a lawyer, probation, and parole.

Court, counsel, and probation are separate from the jail. State parole is a different agency. This is the process a family actually has to walk—not a directory of private bondsmen or attorneys.

01 Ukiah courthouse

100 North State Street

Sheriff Corrections Court (checked 2026-09-12): people booked here are scheduled to appear within 72 hours. Court days do not include weekends and public holidays. The jail will not release the exact date and time of the appearance — ask the clerk or the attorney. re:SearchCA is the court case portal. If you cannot afford an attorney, ask the court to appoint one at arraignment. Ukiah clerk public counter and telephone Monday–Friday 8:30 a.m.–3:30 p.m. Ten Mile (Fort Bragg) 8:30 a.m.–noon and 1:00–3:30 p.m. Criminal clerk (707) 463-4661.

re:SearchCA: researchca.tylerhost.net. Daily calendars update at 6:00 p.m. for the next business day. Criminal cases that are not yours generally cannot be viewed remotely (CRC 2.503(c)); kiosks are outside the clerk’s offices in Ukiah and Ten Mile.

(707) 463-4661

02 Appointed counsel

175 S. School Street

If you cannot afford an attorney, ask the court to appoint one at arraignment. The Public Defender represents people financially unable to employ counsel. Conflicts go to the Alternate Defender.

(707) 234-6950

03 County supervision

Probation is not parole

A probation hold can block release after bail. Adult Pretrial is 579 Low Gap Road, fax (707) 234-6928. Youth detention is Juvenile Hall at 585 Low Gap, intake (707) 234-6682 — not this jail.

Chief Izen Locatelli; Assistant Chief Katie F. Ford. Work Furlough is Adult Division; Corrections also prints (707) 463-4271. Home Detention / Work Release at the jail: (707) 463-4092. 589 Low Gap is not 951 Low Gap visiting.

(707) 234-6900

04 State parole, not county

Ukiah parole — 798 North State Street

CDCR Northern Region directory updated 9/11/2026 lists Ukiah at 798 North State Street, Ukiah, CA 95482, (707) 463-5713, and Santa Rosa at 3222 Airway Drive, Ste. A, (707) 576-2200. State parole is not Mendocino County Probation. Report to the office named in the release papers.

Custody information(707) 463-4411 →

Clear information.
Clear boundaries.

Jail411 is an independent information resource for families and friends. We are not a government agency, jail operator, law firm or live custody-records service.

Can Jail411 tell me if someone is in custody right now?

No. Jail411 does not hold live custody records. Use the official locator for the county, state, federal or ICE system that has the person; start here if you do not know which.

Does posting bond mean the person comes home?

Not always. A probation or parole hold, another county's warrant or an immigration detainer can keep someone in custody after bond is posted. Ask the jail what holds are on the booking before you pay.

What should I confirm before visiting?

The person's current facility, the visiting schedule, approval requirements, accepted identification and arrival instructions. Check the facility page and its official sources before you travel.

What if I find something that needs correcting?

Send us the page and the detail that needs attention. Include the official source when you have one. Do not send private booking documents or other sensitive personal information.
