If the registered owner is in jail/prison, the inmate and a Sheriff’s Custody Deputy must sign a written letter authorizing the vehicle to be released to a CA licensed designee. This signed form, along with current registration, proof of insurance and a valid CA drivers’ license, must be brought to the Police Department to obtain a release form.
