There is no "rule" when an inmate might be offered a furlough. They tend to get approved for a weekend pass to an approved home a few weeks before they are actually released

try calling the facility and ask to speak to the chaplain

When you are denied visitation the only way to get approved is from the warden. You will need to begin by calling the warden's secretary and in the most polite and humble voice, ask them how you would go about the proper channels to have your visitation denial appeal heard.

There are plenty of cases where the warden will act in the best interest of the family and grant you a visit. Your charge is going to be a big factor so keep that in mind as you patiently, humbly and politely ask for a waiver.

Your inmate will need to speak with the prison chaplain to see if he is eligible to get married. Marriage in prison is not available to all inmates. If they are serving a long sentence you might be able to get permission, it is better to wait until they are released to have a really memoriable experience.

we do not have that information. they will not alert the outside when an inmate is set for transfer either, so that the safety and security of the officers transporting inmates remains at the highest level.

Prop 57 releases must go through an application process and get approval. There are no "automatic releases" from Prop 57. The inmate must go to their counselor and ask if they are eligible. If they are eligible, the counselor knows the forms to submit. The process takes weeks.

It depends on the court written Judgement and Commitment Order.  There is no general rule as there are varying degrees of offenses and it is entirely up to the sentencing judge and the facility as to how to handle the visitation. We think that unless there are grievous circumstances surrounding the crime, the court would like inmates to remain connected to their familes wherever possible.

Inmates are not allowed access to the internet, this chat idea sounds good but it's not available anywhere.

You will have to get the new phone number to him. We would be happy to provide you with a coupon code to send a letter (with a photo) to let them know you have a new number for them to dial.
