DETENTION CENTERS NEAR DALLAS, TEXAS

Dallas Immigration Detetion Center

The Dallas Immigration Detention Center is only a temporary processing facility for ICE detainees.  After a person is arrested and handed over to Dallas ICE’s custody, he or she is taken to the Dallas ERO Field Office for processing. Processed immigrants do not stay at the facility overnight.  Often they are housed at the Lew Sterrett Justice Center, located in downtown Dallas at 111 Commerce Street, Dallas, TX 75207.  Usually, within a few days, detainees in Dallas are sent to the Rolling Plains Detention Center or the Johnson County Detention Center.

Johnson County Detention Center

The Johnson County Detention Center is a county-owned and -operated jail in Cleburne, Texas.  Immigration and Customs Enforcement sends ICE detainees there pursuant to an intergovernmental service agreement (IGSA) with the county.  The detention facility is unique because a large proportion of the immigrant detainees there have been deported once before.  Accordingly, ICE “reinstates” their previous removal orders.  However,  many others inmates are in ICE custody for the first time.

Bond


Some immigrant detainees are eligible for release from detention on an immigration bond.  To find out if ICE has set a bond amount, call the Dallas Field Office at (214)424-7811 and ask to speak to the deportation officer assigned to the case.  If ICE has deemed the person ineligible for bond, he or she may still be able to obtain release on bond by requesting a bond hearing before an immigration judge.

Immigration bonds can be posted at any
ICE ERO Field Office in the United States.  But to get a person detained in Haskell released in the shortest amount of time, it is recommended that bond be posted at the Dallas ERO Field Office.  The person posting bond must be a USC or Permanent Resident with two forms of ID.  Call (214) 424-7866.

After an inmate is released, and does not request a hearing before an Immigration Judge in Dallas, Texas, he/she can be dropped off at the DFW Airport: 3200 East Airfield Drive, DFW Airport, TX 75261.  If he/she does request a hearing before a judge, he/she must wait for a Notice to Appeal before an Immigration Judge.
