 Hi, I'm David Cantor with the law offices of David Michael Cantor and today I'm going to talk about how to get regular mail to an inmate who is housed in a Maricopa County jail system now This is regular mail not legal mail legal mail is sent by the attorney's stamped legal mail And it gets in there in a different fashion do not try and send mail if you're not a lawyer and market legal mail That's a big no-no and you can get in a lot a lot of trouble now if you're sending something to an inmate It has to be on a postcard. They don't accept envelopes the minimum size is three and a half inches by four point two five inches Maximum is four point two five by six inches. That's about a standard postcard You must write on it and blue or black ink only no other colors no stickers lipsticks markers No nudity no gang references. Why do they do all that? They don't want the inmate getting high off the ink They also don't want anything inappropriate Beware the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office will read the postcard first So they're gonna look to see if there's any weird codes or something inappropriate being done or any threats to other people inside the jail Now if you're sending newspapers magazines or books to an inmate they have to be purchased through the publisher You can't just buy them at home and mail them in a big envelope So you got to go through the publisher and give them the address of the individual jail You want it mailed to now if you go to our website dmcantor.com. We have the address of each and every jail Listed along with these zip code, etc. And that'll give you a lot of information No Pornography they won't accept it no hardcover books. It has to be a paperback They perceive the hardcovers as a threat So it's got to be a paperback and the inmate can possess only three books Five magazines and one newspaper at a time. So if you send more than that, they're just gonna throw them away Also, if you mailed something and two days later, you're mailing more make sure you gave the inmate enough time to read what you're already said In regard to photographs a lot of people like to send photographs of family gatherings Christmas, etc That's okay You can send up to five photographs at one time that can be sent in an envelope But you have to write photos on the on the envelope and then the jail will open up the envelope read Make sure there's no contraband and they will give the photos separately to the inmate You have to write on the back of the photographs the inmates full name and his booking number In regards to the size of the photos. They can only be a four by sixes. They can't be bigger than that You can either mail them or you can actually go to the individual jail and drop it off directly to the in the lobby to the Sheriff's officer now if you have any questions called this the sims line that Sheriff's Information Management System line at 602 876 032 2 or you can call the individual jails again. That's all on our website This information is all current as as of the making of this video So again, it's always good to check and call in now if your loved one is in jail But they haven't been convicted yet They're in the pre-trial phase give us a call at 602 307 0808 or go to dmcanner.com and fill out a contact us form You can set a free 30 minute consultation in our office doesn't cost you a dime But we'll sit down in the privacy of our office for 30 minutes and go over the case from top to bottom To see what we can do to help get them out of this if they've already pled guilty, but haven't been sentenced Again call us.
