Once a disciplinary report is received, the inmate will be placed in non-contact visiting status. This status remains in effect until dismissed or the Warden's administrative review is completed. If the conviction is upheld, the Deputy Warden of Programs will notify the inmate of the visiting suspension which will be a minimum of 90 days and will be effective the date of the completed administrative review.
