If you or a loved one has been arrested or charged with a crime, or is the subject of an outstanding warrant, and your case is pending at the East County Courthouse, there is contact and other information available that provides a valuable resource during this difficult time. You may have questions about visiting hours at the jail, bail, or any one of a number of issues. In some cases, a trip to the courthouse may be beneficial:

Location: The East County Courthouse is located on the first five floors of 250 East Main Street in El Cajon.
