Incompetent to Stand Trial

Services include psychological and psychiatric evaluation of misdemeanor or felony defendants who have been referred by the court for an evaluation to determine if a defendant is mentally competent to stand trial for a criminal offense.  If a defendant is determined to be incompetent to stand trial, recommendations are made to the court regarding steps that are needed to restore the defendant to mental competency so the defendant can stand trial.  This will include recommendations on placement and treatment.  Defendants are case managed in order to monitor the defendant’s treatment status.
