Dayton, TX Lucile Plane State Jail View
Lucile Plane State Jail is a Texas state jail facility in Dayton, Liberty County, operated by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. It primarily houses female inmates serving state jail felony sentences or otherwise assigned to TDCJ custody. Unlike a county jail, it generally does not serve as the main holding facility for local pretrial detainees; those inmates are usually held by the county sheriff until court action or transfer. The facility’s role is to provide secure custody, classification, programs, and supervision for eligible offenders within the Texas state corrections system.

If no result appears, check the spelling, try again later, or contact the facility or the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for guidance.
FAQs

How does the commissary work?
Commissary allows inmates to buy approved items such as snacks, hygiene products, and writing supplies. Family or friends may be able to deposit funds through the approved deposit service, but limits, fees, and posting times can vary.
How is bail set and how do I post bond at Lucile Plane State Jail?
Bail is normally set by a court or magistrate before a person is transferred to state custody. Because the facility generally houses inmates already in Texas Department of Criminal Justice custody, bond questions should be directed to the court, county clerk, or sheriff’s office handling the case.
What happens during the intake process at Lucile Plane State Jail and when will the inmate appear in the system?
