Comal County Sheriff’s Office announced today that jail visitation is suspended at the request of the Texas Commission on Jail Standards.

Attorney visits will be allowed upon request of the attorney.

The commission asked Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to grant the suspension under the state’s administration code, which requires county jail facilities to have a written plan for visitation.

The standard will be suspended until the termination of the disaster declaration issued by Abbot at noon.
