What Happens After a DV Arrest in Chino Hills
Arrest and transport to WVDC
The Chino Hills Sheriff Station at 14750 Pipeline Ave handles the initial arrest. Your loved one is then transported to West Valley Detention Center at 9500 Etiwanda Ave in Rancho Cucamonga for booking. This is the only booking facility for Chino Hills DV arrests.
Emergency Protective Order issued same night
California law requires the arresting officer to issue an Emergency Protective Order (EPO) in virtually every domestic violence arrest. The EPO goes into effect immediately and typically lasts 5–7 days. It prohibits contact with the alleged victim and may require the defendant to leave the shared residence.
CLETS entry — statewide database
The EPO is entered into CLETS — the California Law Enforcement Telecommunications System — making it visible to every law enforcement agency in the state. Violating the EPO while on bail is a separate criminal charge and will result in immediate re-arrest.
48-hour mandatory hold
San Bernardino County enforces a mandatory 48-hour hold on domestic violence arrests before bail can be posted in many cases. Chad monitors the hold status and is ready to post bond the moment it clears.
Arraignment and criminal protective order
At arraignment, the judge typically converts the EPO into a Criminal Protective Order (CPO) that lasts the duration of the case — often years. The CPO may be modified at the defendant's request, but only by the court.
San Bernardino County DV Bail Schedule
Bail is set by the San Bernardino County bail schedule. Judges may increase bail at arraignment based on prior DV history, severity of injury, or violation of a prior protective order.
| Charge | Typical Bail |
|---|---|
| PC 273.5 — Corporal injury to spouse/cohabitant | $50,000 |
| PC 243(e)(1) — Domestic battery (misdemeanor) | $10,000 |
| PC 422 — Criminal threats | $50,000 |
| PC 273.5 with great bodily injury (GBI) | $100,000+ |
| PC 166 — Violating a protective order | $15,000–$50,000 |
| PC 273d — Child abuse (charged alongside DV) | $50,000–$100,000 |
| PC 646.9 — Stalking | $50,000–$150,000 |
The Emergency Protective Order — What It Means for the Bond
The EPO is not optional and it is not negotiable at the time of arrest. Every person arrested for domestic violence in Chino Hills will have one issued before they leave the scene. Here is what the cosigner needs to understand before posting bail:
The defendant cannot return home if the victim lives there
If the alleged victim lives in the same residence, the EPO prohibits the defendant from returning — even to collect belongings. Violating this condition voids the bond and results in immediate re-arrest.
No contact means no contact
Phone calls, text messages, social media messages, and contact through third parties all count as violations. Chad explains this clearly before the defendant is released.
The cosigner is responsible for compliance
When you sign the bail bond, you are agreeing to ensure the defendant appears in court AND complies with all release conditions. A protective order violation puts the cosigner's collateral at risk.
The EPO becomes a CPO at arraignment
At the first court appearance, the judge will almost certainly convert the EPO into a Criminal Protective Order lasting the life of the case. This is standard in San Bernardino County DV cases.

Cosigner Requirements for Chino Hills DV Bonds
Domestic violence bonds in San Bernardino County require a cosigner who understands the release conditions and can ensure compliance. Chad will ask direct questions — not to judge, but to make sure the bond is structured correctly.
- Valid government-issued photo ID
- Proof of California residency — property ownership preferred for bonds over $50,000
- Stable employment or verifiable income
- Full understanding of the EPO and all release conditions — cosigner is responsible for compliance
- Acknowledgment that the defendant cannot return to a shared residence with the alleged victim
- For bonds over $50,000 — vehicle title or property equity may be required as collateral
If the alleged victim is the one trying to post bail, Chad will have an honest conversation about the EPO implications. It happens more often than people think — and there are right ways and wrong ways to handle it.
From Chad
Domestic violence cases in Chino Hills are some of the most emotionally complicated calls I get. The family is in crisis. Sometimes the person who called 911 is now the one trying to get their partner out of jail. Sometimes it's a parent trying to get their adult child home. Every situation is different.
What I can tell you is this: I do not judge the charge. I do not know what happened in that house. My job is to get your family member out of West Valley Detention Center so they can be home, work with their attorney, and deal with this case from a position of freedom instead of a jail cell.
I will be direct with you about the EPO and what it means. I will explain exactly what the cosigner is agreeing to. And I will not cold-call anyone in your family — if you call me, it is because you chose to.
