In most cases, an inmate may post either cash bail or a bond. Cash bail is accepted for Dakota County charges at District Court (at 1560 Highway 55, Hastings, MN 55033) Monday through Friday between 8 a.m.–4:30 p.m. with the exceptions of holidays.
For Dakota County charges, bail (cash only-in the exact amount) will be accepted at the jail lobby after 4:30 p.m. and on weekends and holidays.
Bail for out of county warrants will only be accepted at the jail if the subject of the warrant is in custody in the Dakota County Jail.
Bonding agents
Instead of cash bail, an inmate may choose to go through a bonding agent. If you are assisting an inmate with posting a bond, you may search for bonding agents online. The bonding agent will help you through the process.
