About this template
What is this template?
This is a formal administrative request letter used by legal counsel to exercise their right to visit a client in prison. It is not a court motion or a bail application, but a procedural notice to jail authorities. The document specifically requires the attachment of a Vakalatnama and specifies that the letter must be submitted via a physical drop box.
When should you use it?
Use this when you have been retained as counsel and need to discuss case strategy or take instructions from a person in judicial custody. If you are seeking the client's release rather than a meeting, use a Bail Application instead.
