It is a letter one writes to seek permission to meet a prisoner. Individuals who may write this letter may include an attorney representing the prisoner, family members, journalist, or any other interested party. In most prisons, you must write a letter to the warden if you want to visit a prison. A prisoner is only allowed to meet a certain number of visitors in a specified period. In this regard, you need to inform the prison warden you want to visit the prisoner so that you can be added to their list of visitors. When writing your letter, you should be aware that your request may be approved or denied.
