On average whether to allow a person to come in a situation like this it is discretionary and up to the judge to decide. If he has been denied it may possibly be for reasons that they will not budge on. There are many factors that go into a decision like this
If you feel it was not fair I advise you to contact a local attorney who specializes in this area of law. Once they know all the specific facts they can judge as to whether the court would usually allow release for an event like this. If he believes they would he can present your fathers case to the judge and possibly get the temporary release
