Can a lawyer bring a letter into the detention center?

Legal analysis: This is not allowed. Lawyers can only convey the opinions of family members orally. Family members can mail letters to the detention center or hire lawyers to meet at the detention center.

Legal basis: Article 37 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), defense lawyers can meet and correspond with criminal suspects and defendants in custody. Other defenders, with the permission of the people's courts and people's procuratorates, may also meet and correspond with criminal suspects and defendants in custody.
