Attorney Visits vs. Videoconferences at NJ Prisons (When to request each for South Woods)
At South Woods State Prison, the key difference comes down to lead time and how you make the request. For an in-person attorney visit, attorneys (or their representatives) need to notify the inmate's housing facility administrator at least 24 hours ahead—either in writing or by phone. Videoconferences require more runway: you'll need to fax your request to the appropriate institution and coordinator at least 48 hours in advance, and that 48-hour window doesn't count weekends or holidays.
