There are a couple of places for ordering things for a Convict. BUST-A-MOVE is one.

How soon after my son arrives can I visit him?

John LaRocque | Sep 5, 2021
PaulChristopher Wolfe3ON | Sep 5, 2021

That varies. The first steps of a new prison arrival are referred to as "Reception." This process takes up to several days. This is when the convict will be issued a DIN #. This is their ID. You will have to wait until the convict contacts you and gives you the DIN# before you can visit.

I have called the prison and you get no answers, just a run around. Speak to your son or daughter, call DOCCS LEGAL DEPT. They do what they want to do

PaulChristopher Wolfe3ON | Sep 5, 2021

If he's incarcerated already... No one. You'd need to start the appeal process. If he hasn't been sentenced by a judge yet you can talk with the judge. Also the Governor of the state can grant clemency.

Do u get good time off on a parole violation

Lisa Jacques | Sep 6, 2019
PaulChristopher Wolfe3ON | Sep 5, 2021

Sounds like, "If you get released from prison on your "conditional release date" are on Parole and then violate can you lose good time?" YES. You may be held until your Max Date.

Why are the prisons sentencing inmates to SHU for 260 days? When a law pas recently passed for no more than 14 days in solitary confinement.

Most Correctional Facilities have there own policies and rules governing packages amongst other things. Best bet is to either look it up online or contact the facility by phone. People say, "the facility staff is uncooperative." Sometimes contacting that prisons chapel is helpful.
