Bail Bond Questions — Waxahachie

Where are people booked after a Waxahachie arrest?
Most Waxahachie arrests are processed and booked at the Ellis County Jail, located at 300 S. Jackson St. in Waxahachie. Because the county jail is located within the city, bond processing can begin without the transfer delays that affect arrests in other Ellis County cities.
What types of charges in Waxahachie require a bail bond?
Charges classified as Class A or Class B misdemeanors, all felony offenses, DWI arrests, drug possession, assault, family violence, and outstanding warrants typically require a surety bond when processed through the Ellis County court system. Class C misdemeanors and city ordinance violations are usually handled through Waxahachie municipal court without requiring a bond.
Does Waxahachie have its own municipal court for bond matters?
Waxahachie has a municipal court that handles Class C misdemeanors and city ordinance violations. More serious charges — including Class A and B misdemeanors, felonies, and DWI — go through the Ellis County court system, which requires a surety bond posted at the county jail.
Is Act Swift Bail Bonds open on weekends and holidays in Waxahachie?
Yes. Our Waxahachie office operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and all major holidays. Arrests do not follow a schedule, and our agents are available whenever families need assistance.
