Brad Conway, George and Cindy Anthony's attorney, said Tuesday that he is negotiating a private service for Caylee that includes a jailhouse family reunion with Casey Anthony.

The couple's lawyer said he hopes to find out by the end of the week if the Anthony's will be able to reunite with Casey Anthony behind bars to grieve the child she is charged with killing.

George and Cindy Anthony have been waiting for and have been working on plans for a private service for their granddaughter, Caylee.

Attorney Tom Luka, a lawyer for Casey Anthony's brother, Lee, said the hope is for “some sort of reunification with the family, the whole family, Casey included, so they can grieve and say goodbye together".

Orange County corrections officials state that due to the "life felony charges" Anthony is facing, policy would prohibit her leaving the jail for any service. Brad Conway says they're trying to hammer out details for a private service behind bars.

“We are trying to work with the jail,” said attorney Brad Conway, who represents grandparents George and Cindy Anthony.

If there have been talks to reunite the Anthony's behind bars, the jail is not confirming them.

"No such request has been received by Orange County Corrections," spokesman Allen Moore said. "It is highly unlikely such a request would be granted."

Meanwhile the Anthony's are finalizing plans to hold a larger memorial service for Caylee to which the public would be invited to attend. According to their lawyer the goal is to announce that date on Wednesday.
