Mail and phone

• Routine mail goes to the central scanning center, not the prison: Inmate's last name, first name, DC#, PO Box 23608, Tampa, FL 33623. It is delivered electronically. [FDC mail]
• Legal and privileged mail still goes to the institution. Since September 15, 2025, legal mail needs an attorney registration number and tracking number.
