Question

How long can DEPT. of CORR. terminate a visitor?

Answer 1

an indeterminate amount if the facts support the decision, and like my friend pointed out, its not a right to visit correctional institutions.

Answer 2

Fer the rest of your natural life.........if they feel like it........................

Answer 3

as long as they like. there are no laws requiring DOC to allow visitors... its a priviledge not a right.

Answer 4

would agree with 178, DOC can keep anyone out that they feel is a liability, risk, etc.

I'm sure there are avenues of appeal or that legal action can be brought, however, if they can articulate why someone should not be allowed to visit, such as previous misbehavior, contraband etc chances are you not going to get to visit.
