Medium Classification: 45 minute visit 1 time per week.
High Medium Classification: 30 minute visit 1 time per week.
Maximum Classification: 30 minute visit 1 time per week. Inmates in discipline will not qualify for personal visits. If an inmate is brought in on a new charge which requires a bail hearing, their visitation request will not be processed or approved until after their bail hearing.
The inmate must request you as a visitor. In order for them to do this they must fill out a visitation form which will require the following information:
Last Name, First Name, Middle Initial, your date of birth, phone number, address, city, state, zip code, race, eye color, and hair color.
If you don't think they have this information you may want to write them and enclose this information. Make sure you put their name on the envelope. See "FAQ" How do I send an inmate mail? for proper mailing instructions. Inmates may have unlimited immediate family visitors approved to visit. Immediate family includes: father, mother, step-father, step-mother, brother, sister, spouse, grandparents, and the inmate's children. They may also have 4 non-immediate family members to visit. Non-immediate includes: step-brother, step-sister, brother in law, sister in law, uncles, aunts, cousins, nephews, nieces, and friends. It is the inmates responsibility to notify the visitors when they have been approved. DO NOT CALL THE JAIL TO SEE IF YOU ARE APPROVED OR WHEN THE VISITATION TIME IS-THEY WILL NOT GIVE YOU THIS INFORMATION!
It is based on the type of current and past crimes they are charged with or have been found guilty of. It is also based on their previous history and disciplines while in custody.

No, all personal visitation is non-contact.

They have no release date until their probation agent sends a cancellation of the hold. The jail has no advance knowledge of when this is going to happen. You would have to refer all questions to their probation agent. The local probation office phone number is (920) 683-4590.
If you are posting the bail prior to the inmate's bail hearing you may post it at the jail. We will accept cash or personal checks which must be local (drawn from a banking institution within the state of Wisconsin). The maximum amount a check can be written for is $500.00. The check should be made payable to the Manitowoc County Clerk of Courts. If you are not in Manitowoc you may post it at your local Sheriff's Department however then we will only accept cash as a form of payment. Check with your local agency as they may charge fees to process the transaction. You must also have a valid identification card or driver's license when posting bail. If you are at the Manitowoc County Jail and request to post bail or fines for charges from another county agency, we will require payment in cash. If you want to post bail for an inmate who has had a bail hearing for charges which occured in Manitowoc County, you may post it at the Manitowoc County Clerk of Courts office during regular business hours (Monday-Friday 8:30am-4:30pm). After hours or on holidays you may post it directly at the jail.
Not necessarily, if the defendant fails to show up for court the monies could be forfeited or could be used to pay fines and court costs.
All inmates are given the opportunity to speak with and be represented by a public defender at their bail hearings. The courts will provide an interpreter if they do not speak English.
*Persons brought in on new charges and/or warrants will make a bail hearing at 1 pm the next business day following their arrest. The public may view the bail hearings from Room B-15 in the basement of the Manitowoc County Courthouse, 1010 South 8th Street. The inmate will appear via video. *For those inmates that do not have their own attorney for their bail hearing, the State Public Defender may represent them in court. The Public Defender comes to the jail to interview inmates that are scheduled for a bail hearing that day. * Do Not call the jail after the bail hearing to find out if or when an inmate is to be released. If the court grants an inmates release after the bail hearing, the releasing process will only begin once all bail hearings are completed for that day, after the Clerk of Court has completed all release paperwork and after it has been reviewed with the inmate(s) getting released. The jail priorities and staffing also plays a part. *Jail uniforms will be worn for court appearances. The exception to this is if the inmate has a Jury trial or the inmate has Huber Law and going to court without a deputy. *The court schedules all court appearances for individual inmates. To find out dates and times please contact the Clerk of Circuit Court at (920) 683-4030 or log onto Wisconsin Courts.*Inmates, family, or friends are not allowed to pass things to each other during court. Visitation with the inmate shall not take place during the court hearing.
