how do I get the county jail to approve my visiting application with my ex-husband but working on reconciliation after denial based on felony conviction from 2011-2012 and I have been discharged from parole successfully with no violations
If your visitation application with your ex-husband at the county jail was denied due to your felony conviction from 2011-2012, there are steps you can take to potentially get your application reconsidered, especially since you've completed parole without any violations. Here’s how to approach the situation: 1. Understand the Jail's Visitation Policy: Review the specific visitation guidelines and policies of the county jail where your ex-husband is incarcerated. Many facilities have strict rules regarding visitors with felony convictions, but some allow exceptions on a case-by-case basis, particularly if significant time has passed and the individual has demonstrated rehabilitation. 2. Submit a Written Request for Reconsideration: Write a formal letter to the jail's visitation coordinator, warden, or the facility's administration requesting reconsideration of your application. In your letter, highlight the following: Completion of Parole: Emphasize that you successfully completed your parole with no violations. Rehabilitation Efforts: Mention any positive changes you've made since your conviction, such as stable employment, involvement in community service, education, or other rehabilitative programs. Reason for Visit: Clearly explain your intentions for wanting to visit, focusing on your efforts toward reconciliation and the importance of maintaining family connections for both you and your ex-husband. 3. Provide Supporting Documentation: Attach any relevant documents that support your request, such as: A copy of your parole discharge certificate Letters of recommendation from parole officers, employers, counselors, or community leaders Any certificates of completion from rehabilitation, educational, or vocational programs 4. Obtain Support from Your Ex-Husband's Case Manager or Counselor: If possible, have your ex-husband speak with his case manager, counselor, or chaplain at the jail. These staff members can sometimes advocate on your behalf, especially if they believe that your visits would have a positive impact on his rehabilitation or well-being. 5. Be Patient and Follow Up Respectfully: After submitting your request, allow some time for the jail's administration to review it. Follow up with a polite phone call or email to inquire about the status of your application. Persistence, combined with a respectful approach, can sometimes help in getting a second look. 6. Consider Involving Legal Counsel or an Advocate: If your request is denied again, you may want to seek assistance from an attorney or an advocate specializing in inmate visitation rights. They can help you navigate the process and ensure your rights are considered. By demonstrating rehabilitation, maintaining a respectful and honest approach, and providing comprehensive documentation, you can increase your chances of having the visitation application reconsidered.
I am a French user but I made a promise to a detainee who was publicized whose name I will not mention a short time ago. He was sentenced to life and despite his young age, we had an exchange when he was still in the old prison where his trial was in progress. After the verdict, it was very hard work to find him. Today I sent him a letter and I hope he will be allowed to reply to me. I hope he is well, I hope that despite what he has done, his mail will be delivered to him because I only count on this site to hope to resume a correspondence with him. Every inmate deserves a contact, no matter what they do, I don't have to judge, it's been done. Inmate Aid, you are now my only link to this person who has been talking about him so much lately... you are also his only hope that his French friend can reconnect with him.
So I'm at home and I decided to enter my first, middle, and last name into Google to see what came back. The very first link at the top was an InmateAid profile stating I was in a correctional facility. That was not accurate. I reached out to inmateaid via www.inmateaid.com/contact and explained the inaccuracy. I also emailed them at aid@inmateaid.com. I did these two things at about 6:45pm. By 7:15pm they responded back to me and had the profile removed. I confirmed it was in fact removed. I am still waiting for Google to remove the search result, but I could not be happier with InmateAid's quick turn around. Thank you!
I just wanted to thank all who operate this site it is by far the coolest thing about this whole unfortunate event that's has taken place in my gf and my life. So thank you very much
Someone I care about is incarcerated and your company has helped us both adjust to each other's absence. I have sent 312 custom-designed postcards to my inmate over the last 2.5 years using your service. I've tried other companies who offer similar services but the quality of their finished products was terrible. My inmate was so excited when I started using Inmate Aid and told me that everyone including staff were impressed with his postcards. I have lauded your services to anyone who would listen, thank you so much for helping me keep in close contact with my loved one. We appreciate you.
Thank you all for the phone line.It was very helpful on saving me money.My boy friend is coming home on the 23 .Thanks so much.
During the last 5 years, my brother, sisters, and I used the service of Inmate Aid. We won't be needing the InmateAis service anymore. It always worked out great and we would like to thank you for the good service.
My review is the service was wonderful and very accommodating, I never knew there was this kind of service before. As I searched the website and got the information I read and reread til I understood how the service work. I followed the step as stated in the information. And immediately the service was working for my inmate. Most importantly when I needed my questions answered they were answered immediately. Thanks again for this great service.
User friendly website and quick process of the services. Also very easy to use. Fenny K.
It's a nice system to have
Inmate aid is definitely the most responsive group of people. Everyone I have dealt with in the last 2 years has been marvelous! Especially Courtney! She is just so human and real (you know, as opposed to reading me that "scripted" response). I recommend you to everyone in my situation. Thankfully, I don't know many...lol.
Thanks for your help. I love this website. I'm glad I have the ability to send pics and letters.
It's great to know about this service and I will surely use it in the future if needed. Nothing against all of you lol but I hope it's not needed. It certainly has been helpful and everyone is very helpful.
