How often are they outside there cell
2021-06-09
This depends on their custody level and the security level at the facility they are incarcerated in.
Minimum security, there are no cells, you live in a barracks setting where there are 100 people in one large room and you are only there to sleep and count times.

How do I appeal a denial from MCI Cedar Junction for an open case whe...
2021-05-29
The only way to appeal it is to write the warden. Take a humble approach and be very respectful when communicating. They have the final say. If you are pushy or demanding, you will get nowhere.
