The question is unclear. Except in the smallest of jurisdictions, the police are usually not responsible for ensuring the transport of each and every single prisoner to court. That function is usually handled by the Detention Deputies of the local Sheriff's Office.

If that is not the information you are looking for, please re-word and re-submit the question.

Additional Information:

Two possible answers to this question are the writ of habeas corpus, which is a court order and an arrestee's right to an initial appearance before a court after an arrest under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 5, which is not a court order.

The writ of habeas corpus is a court order directing anyone having the custody of an individual to bring that individual before the court for an inquiry into the legitimacy of that person's detention. However, this is not something that "requires that police must bring EACH prisoner to court" as the question is phrased. It is issued only upon specific application by someone on behalf of a specific individual.

The requirement that police must bring EACH and every prisoner to court is the right of individuals to what is called an "initial appearance." This is embodied in Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 5, rather than a court order. Rule 5 requires that every person arrested (with certain exceptions stated within the Rule) must be brought before the court for an inquiry into the legality of the person's arrest and detention and an explanation of the person's rights. At this point in time the individual is a "prisoner" in the sense that he/she is under arrest and detention, but is not a "prisoner" in the sense of having being convicted and in prison serving a sentence.

Note that this rule governs federal criminal procedure. Criminal procedure among the states will vary according to their own rules, but since most state rules are modeled on the federal rules, any variation will be minimal.

Question is not exactly clear. You can be "jailed" immediately after your arrest for "probable cause" and to be held for presentment before court. If by "jailed" you mean 'imprisoned,' then you may be referring to a Writ of 'Habeus Corpus' which compels the prosecution to show legal cause for your detention. If this is not the info you are seeking - please re-word and re-submit the question.
