City Jail
Jail Operations
Operated by the Police Department, the Westlake City Jail detains prisoners after being arrested either to post bond or be arraigned, while they await a preliminary hearing, or to serve a sentence imposed by the Rocky River Municipal Court. The jail has a closed circuit TV hookup with the court; this allows many minor hearings to be conducted without transporting the prisoner to the courthouse. Individuals arrested for DUI are given a breath test in the jail, as well.
