On-site, non-contact visitation is available to parents, grandparents, spouses, siblings, fiancés, and children (children must be 16 or older and accompanied by a legal guardian). However, the online registration system states that only immediate family members (parents, spouses, and children) will be approved. If you fall outside that immediate-family group, expect the approval process to be more difficult. Children visiting must be accompanied by a legal or court-appointed guardian.

To visit someone housed at David L. Moss Criminal Justice Center, you need to complete and submit the DLM Visitor's Request Form. Fill out every single field. The jail's instructions are explicit: all fields are required. If something genuinely doesn't apply to you, write in the reason rather than leaving it blank.
