Huntsville, TX Reverend C.A. Holliday Transfer Facility View
Reverend C.A. Holliday Transfer Facility is a Texas Department of Criminal Justice transfer facility in Huntsville, Walker County, Texas. It is a state-operated facility, not a county jail, and primarily holds male inmates who have been sentenced or are otherwise in TDCJ custody while they await assignment, transfer, or placement within the state prison system. It generally does not serve as the main local booking jail for pretrial detainees. Its role is to support movement and classification of inmates within the Texas correctional system after they leave county custody or enter state custody.
Contact and Location Information
How to Find an Inmate at Reverend C.A. Holliday Transfer Facility
The public can look for an inmate using the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility’s roster or TDCJ offender search. Inmate records typically list the person’s name, identification number, custody status, location, offense or charges, sentence information, and sometimes a booking or received date. Records may not appear immediately after arrival because intake, identification, and data entry can take several hours or longer. If the person was recently arrested, first check the county jail where the arrest occurred, because pretrial detainees are usually listed there before any transfer to state custody.
FAQs
How do I visit an inmate at Reverend C.A. Holliday Transfer Facility?
Visitation is usually scheduled under Texas Department of Criminal Justice rules, and visitors may need to be on the inmate’s approved visitation list. Check the facility’s current visiting days, hours, and scheduling rules before traveling.
What do I need to bring when visiting Reverend C.A. Holliday Transfer Facility?
Bring a valid government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license, state ID, passport, or military ID. Follow the dress code and property rules, because items such as phones, bags, and extra personal property may not be allowed inside.
How do I make phone or video calls with an inmate?
Inmates generally cannot receive incoming calls, but they may be able to make approved outgoing calls through the state’s phone service provider. Families usually need to set up an account and make sure their phone number is approved before calls can be completed.
How do I send mail to an inmate?
Use the inmate’s full name, TDCJ number if known, and the facility mailing address. Mail is screened for security, so do not send prohibited items, cash, or anything that violates mail rules.
How does the commissary work?
Commissary allows eligible inmates to buy approved items such as snacks, hygiene products, and writing supplies. Family or friends may be able to add funds through the approved deposit system, but spending limits and item availability are set by policy.
How is bail set and how do I post bond at Reverend C.A. Holliday Transfer Facility?
Bail is set by a court, not by the facility. Because this is generally a state transfer facility for inmates already in TDCJ custody, bond questions usually need to be directed to the court or county jail connected to the original case.
What happens during the intake process at Reverend C.A. Holliday Transfer Facility and when will the inmate appear in the system?
During intake, staff verify identity, review records, assign housing, and enter information into the custody system. Processing can take several hours or longer, so the inmate may not appear in the online search immediately after arrival.
