Subject: Visitation

Parolees are normally not allowed visitation without permission from the warden. The out date calculation has everything to do with the wording in the Judgement and Commitment document signed by the judge. If there is wording about parole, or work release or nothing at all. If it is a normal state sentence, he will probably have to do 85% of the imposed sentence. That would be about 255 months or 21 1/4 years.

Subject: Commissary

Minimum custody prison is similar to army barracks living. There are normally no fences and the un-prison-like setting there is almost surreal considering you are serving a sentence. For this "benefit" there is an understanding that the prospect of being transferred to a "real prison" for breaking the rules exists and creates a calmer experience among the inmates than other situations in higher custody level facilities might have.  Forty months is no joke, but being in a camp versus a walled prison

Subject: Send inmate mail

Inmates that have money on their inmate trust accounts can purchase stamps and envelopes at the weekly commissary. If they do not have money on their books, the prison will provide indigent inmates with all the materials necessary to send out mail to their loved ones.

Subject: Bond questions

Signature bond is like a "get out of jail free card". When a criminal suspect is arrested, booked, and granted "own recognizance" release, no bail money needs to be paid to the court, and no bond is posted. The suspect is merely released after promising, in writing, to appear in court for all upcoming proceedings. Failure to appear and there will be no amount of money to release you.

Subject: Sentence reduction

The typical guideline to follow is that most sentences come with built-in "good-time credits".  This is normally 15% of the total. Assuming this is available to you, 85% of 120 months is 102 months. Then there is halfway house (if available) which might carve another 3-9 months off the sentence. Be mindful that the halfway house is still a form of incarceration but reserved for inmates with no conduct problems or incident reports.

Subject: Sentence reduction

That is actually a better sentence than one year (the judge did him a small favor). Any federal sentence over one year qualifies for "good time credit". Good time is 15% of the sentence which is granted upon arrival. This is the best he will do, he can only lose this good time by getting into trouble while there. He will do 311 days and then deal with whatever supervised release time that was on his sentence.

Subject: Prison violence

It depends on the level of custody the prison where your cousin is headed as the higher security has longer term sentences with inmates who have little to lose when they fight. However, the conduct inside a prison is nothing like what you see on television. But, fights could occur in any level prison or jail if there are conflicts. The same could happen on a street corner, a restaurant or a store. The likelihood of altercations will depend on
