I worked for the California state system, starting as a Correctional Officer and retiring as a Lieutenant in 2005. I now write for the PacoVilla blog which is concerned with what could broadly be called The Correctional System.
I have absolutely no idea whatsoever. This is a question that should be directed to the individual lawyer or the bar association.
I ended up in the middle of a couple of full-blown riots that were pretty scary and could have gotten nasty. Such things are generally not focused on staff but that doesn't mean that staff can't get badly hurt in them.
In CA, yes it is. I suspect that is the case in most systems.
Sorry, but I have no information on this subject one way or the other.

Depends what you mean as DYSLEXIC. I managed very nicely with a mild case of dyslexia, mine was mostly numbers. I knew people who managed moderately who were worse off than I was, they just had to write their reports very carefully and make sure they were competently reviewed before submission. Perhaps my biggest gripe as a Sgt. was dealing with shoddy reports, though most of those were just people who couldn't write, had nothing to do with dyslexia.
I am unfamiliar with the laws in WA, I worked all my time in CA. That being said I confess that this sounds odd to me. I am inclined to think that there must be something going on in addition to the employment status, such as an existing court order re: contact.
Not my department. Sorry. They can be required to go to therapy, they can not be FORCED to go to therapy.
