N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. Tit. 7 § 723.6 - Suspension or revocation of inmate telephone call privileges
(a) Inmates may
have their telephone call privileges limited, suspended or revoked pursuant to
a disposition of a disciplinary hearing or superintendent's hearing.
(b) Additionally, if during the course of a
continuing investigation, the facility superintendent has reason to believe
that the safety, security, good order or well-being of the facility or any
person is threatened, the superintendent may immediately take action to limit,
suspend or revoke an inmate's telephone privileges.
(1) In such instances, the superintendent
must inform the inmate, in writing, of the underlying basis for the limitation,
suspension or revocation, consistent with the need to safeguard the ongoing
investigation.
(2) The inmate must
be afforded an opportunity to respond to the action of the superintendent,
usually by a written reply to the superintendent. When the inmate's written
reply is received, the superintendent will consider the inmate's comments in
deciding whether or not to continue the limitation, suspension or revocation of
the inmate' s telephone call privileges.
(c) An inmate may appeal the superintendent's
limitation, suspension or revocation of his telephone call privileges in
writing to the Deputy Commissioner for Program Services. A response to the
appeal must be provided within 30 days of receipt of the appeal in central
office.
