inmate be permitted in. The request must include the person’s name and relationship to the
inmate. The relationship must be of a legal nature (parent/child, spouse/spouse, etc.,) OR there
must be a verifiable relationship in place (such as the inmate is a parent of child in custody of

for the visit, and the lobby clerk/visiting officer will receive a photocopy of the request. No former inmates will
be permitted to enter without an approved request.

Approval or denial of any visitor is at the discretion of prison administration.
