If you have a felony you will probably not be approved. If you have a warrant and attempt to visit and inmate, there is a high likelihood that you will get picked up at the facility and become an inmate yourself. You should make 100% sure that the fines are paid and registered with the Clerk of the Court before even trying to apply for a visit.
