Bail Bond Questions — Ennis

Where do Ennis arrests get processed for bail?
Ennis has a city jail that handles initial booking for municipal offenses. However, most charges that require a surety bond — including felonies, DWI, and higher-level misdemeanors — result in a transfer to the Ellis County Jail in Waxahachie for magistration and bond processing.
What happens during the transfer from Ennis to the Ellis County Jail?
After initial processing at the Ennis city facility, individuals facing county-level charges are transported to the Ellis County Jail in Waxahachie. Transfer timing depends on arrest volume, staffing, and time of day. Once the transfer is complete and bail is set during magistration, a surety bond can be filed.
Can a bail bond be filed at the Ennis city jail?
Surety bonds for charges that go through the Ellis County court system must be filed at the Ellis County Jail in Waxahachie, not at the Ennis city jail. Act Swift Bail Bonds handles this filing so families in Ennis do not need to drive to Waxahachie themselves.
Does Act Swift Bail Bonds serve the Ennis area after hours?
Yes. We are available 24/7 for Ennis bail bonds. Whether an arrest happens on a Friday night or early Tuesday morning, our agents respond immediately and begin working the bond process once bail is set.
