113 - Absence of Incarcerated Individual for Funeral and Deathbed Visits Authorized.

§  113.  Absence  of  incarcerated individual for funeral and deathbed
  visits  authorized.  The  commissioner  may  permit   any   incarcerated
  individual  confined  by the department except one awaiting the sentence
  of death to attend the funeral of his or her father, mother, guardian or
  former guardian, child, brother,  sister,  husband,  wife,  grandparent,
  grandchild,  ancestral  uncle  or ancestral aunt within the state, or to
  visit such individual during his or her illness if  death  be  imminent;
  but  the  exercise  of  such  power  shall  be subject to such rules and
  regulations as the commissioner shall prescribe, respecting the granting
  of such permission, duration of absence from the  institution,  custody,
  transportation  and  care  of  the incarcerated individual, and guarding
  against escape. Any  expense  incurred  under  the  provisions  of  this
  section, with respect to any incarcerated individual permitted to attend
  a  funeral  or  visit a relative during last illness, shall be deemed an
  expense of maintenance of  the  institution  and  be  paid  from  moneys
  available therefor; but the superintendent, if the rules and regulations
  of  the  commissioner  shall  so  provide,  may  allow  the incarcerated
  individual or anyone in his or her behalf to  reimburse  the  state  for
  such expense.
