Friends and Family Visits

All visitation is remote through NCIC Inmate Communications. Family and friends may set up accounts at NCIC's Video Visitation or by calling 1-844-724-2076. NCIC supports phone calls, video visits, and direct messaging. All communications are subject to monitoring.

Visitation is from 6 a.m. – 10 p.m. every day.

Attorney Visits

Legal representatives may visit detainees in person. All such visits must be scheduled in advance with facility staff by calling (307) 783-1020.

A list of pro bono (free) legal organizations will be posted in all detainee housing units and other appropriate areas. This list shall be updated quarterly. If a detainee wishes to see a representative or paralegal from that organization, it is the detainee’s responsibility to contact them for an appointment.

Legal Calls or Video Teleconferencing

Visitation is from 6 a.m. – 10 p.m. every day.

For confidential legal calls, legal counsel should contact facility staff at (307) 783-1020 and advise that they need to speak with a client. Staff will return the call on an unrecorded line to ensure confidentiality. If legal counsel wishes detainees to be able to place privileged, non-recorded calls to them, counsel must contact the same number and provide the phone number to be designated as a privileged line. Staff can then configure this within the NCIC system.

Legal counsel may also use video visitation. Video visits are conducted through NCIC; counsel must contact staff to be set up as a privileged user, which prevents monitoring or recording and does not incur any cost.

Electronic Exchange of Legal Documentation

When timely communication through the mail is not possible, the facility administrator may, in his discretion, allow for a reasonable amount of electronic written communication by means between the detained alien and their designated legal representative.

Faxes/Emails Sent by Legal Representatives to the Attention of Detained Aliens

Legal representatives can send legal correspondence to ucsocourt@uintacountywy.gov. Legal representatives should make clear in the subject line that it is legal correspondence/mail and include as an attachment the specific documents/forms that the legal representative wants the facility to deliver to the detained alien. Within the email the legal representative should include the following information and a cover sheet for the attachment that includes the:

Alien full name
