does a parent have the right to visitation while incarcerated

I have custody of my 8 year old son. His father has visitation every other weekend. Recently, his father was incarcerated. Do I have the right to prevent his stepmother from bringing my son to jail to visit with his father? And if so, how do I obtain such an order?

Also does his stepmother still have the right to visit with my son?
