Restriction 31: Visitation Suspension

Under Florida Administrative Code Rule 33-601.731, a "Restriction 31" or similar suspension occurs when an inmate or visitor violates specific security rules. 

• Cause: It is typically triggered by serious infractions such as attempting to pass contraband (drugs, money, or weapons), unauthorized communication via cell phones, or physical violence.
• Duration: Suspensions can be temporary or indefinite depending on the severity of the violation.
• Impact: When this restriction is active, the inmate's name is flagged in the automated visiting record, and they are prohibited from receiving any visitors.
