Corrections

You can send any inmate money through the United States Postal Service.  The only acceptable form will be a money order listing the amount, inmate's name, and person who purchased the money order.  If cash is sent, it will be returned to the sender.  The inmate receives a receipt indicating the day the money was received and how much was entered into his/her account.

Call the Gage County Detention Center at 402-223-5222.  The jail staff will confirm if the individual is in the facility.  They can also tell you what charges they were booked for, what police agency booked the individual, what the bail is, what the next court appearance date is, and if booked for being under the influence, how long before the individual is eligible for release (minimum four (4)  hour stay).

Bail is the amount of money that the Courts require to be deposited with them to guarantee that the arrested individual will come to court on the date they are to appear.  Court appearance dates are set by the Court.  The jail accepts bail 24 hours a day for inmates in our custody or inmates in another jurisdiction held on a Gage County warrant.

Bail may be posted in the following ways:

According to Nebraska statutes, an inmate's access to a telephone is a privilege granted to those inmates who demonstrate a willingness to obey the rules and regulations of the Gage County Detention Center.

Telephones used by inmates can only make outgoing calls.  These phones cannot receive calls.  Calls made from inmate telephones that are not local will be either collect or made with prepaid calling cards.

Access to telephones may be suspended at any time for any reason by custody staff.

Inmates are allowed unlimited mail during their incarceration. When an inmate receives mail, it is opened and searched for contraband, cash, and money orders.  The mail is then delivered to the inmate without unnecessary delay.  Inmates may not receive hardback books, catalogues, brochures, or advertisements.
