Address both the letter and envelope as follows:

All incoming and outgoing mail is opened, examined, and read by designated facility staff.

Offenders are allowed unrestricted access to legal representatives and courts through the mail. Only that mail to or from an offender which is clearly identified as legal mail is treated as such. It is the responsibility of the sender to indicate that the correspondence is legal mail.
