What it does

The synopsis the General Assembly published with the bill.

To provide for the submission of a progress report and a court hearing if the person in charge of a treatment facility finds that a defendant found incompetent and committed to the facility has not yet attained competency but has improved sufficiently that continued inpatient commitment is no longer the least restrictive placement appropriate and available to restore competency, and permit the court to release the defendant for outpatient treatment on a promise to appear and other conditions of release.
