Subject: Sentence reduction

The criminal justice system does not make significant allowances for "first time offenders" There is a chart that is set up like a grid where the sentencing guidelines are an actual point system. Points given to the various aspects of the conviction. Once the points are added up, the judge is give a range to determine the sentence.  Another element to sentencing is the Pre-Sentence Report (PSR) that is compiled and written by the Pre-Sentence Investigator (PSI), This report compiles

We said we would re-send the letters at NO CHARGE. Why are you questioning whether we did? We said we did and we keep our word...

Subject: Sentence reduction

This is too complicated for us to give you an accurate answer. There is something called a Judgement and Commitment Order that is written by the judge. It is in that document that will let your inmate know what the sentence will be. Most state systems require that 80-85% of the sentence be served. We don't know if the "half time" means that the original sentence is cut in half and then the mandatory time served or if that is

It can actually be all of the above. They can hold the property, they can mail the property to a home address or a loved one can come pick it up. Please call the facility and ask them their specific procedure. Let us know if you need a telephone number - get us the name of the facility.

Please be patient, if the ID number and facility are correct we

The inmate must look for a job and pay the house one-third of their pay for the entire six months. Newly released inmates get a false

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. If your inmate writes to you directly, using your address, the cost of the mailing is a 49 cent stamp. Many of our members use the Inmate Response Mail service through InmateAid. Your inmate

Subject: Offender phone calls

When you set up the Discount Telephone Service, it will be your responsibility to get the information to your inmate. There are some places where the staff will pass along this information but since it is not a normal practice we do not advise our members to go that route as it is largely unreliable. There are so many different rules in over 10,000 facilities (state and federal are very strict with the rules, too) that we cannot be sure
