Releasing Property to an Outside Person or Agency

When you release an offender’s property to an outside person with the offender’s consent, dispose of unclaimed items to designated recipients, or hand an offender’s property to outside agencies or courts, you dispose of the offender’s property to that agency or person. You have to go through these steps for each location the property is in: transferring property from the offender’s cell and from each container.
