As a grandparent in Indiana, you have visitation rights. You do not have your son's visitation rights, even with a POA. The POA, or your son's presence in jail, has nothing to do with it. You can petition the appropriate court for your rights to be enforced. You will have to talk to a lawyer in your community as to what the appropriate court would be.
