SENATE BILL NO. 250 Offered January 11, 2006 Prefiled January 10, 2006 A BILL to amend and reenact § 19.2-182.10 of the Code of Virginia, relating to the duration of the custody period following the revocation of a person's conditional release but before he is subject to hospitalization and treatment. ---------- Patrons-- Puller and Lambert; Delegates: Brink and Morgan ---------- Referred to Committee for Courts of Justice ----------

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1.  That § 19.2-182.10 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:

§ 19.2-182.10. Release of person whose conditional release was revoked.

If an acquittee is returned to the custody of the Commissioner for inpatient treatment pursuant to revocation proceedings, and his condition improves to the degree that, within thirty60 days of resumption of custody following the hearing, the acquittee, in the opinion of hospital staff treating the acquittee and the supervising community services board, is an appropriate candidate for conditional release, he may be, with the approval of the court, conditionally released as if revocation had not taken place. If treatment is required for longer than thirty60 days, the acquittee shall be returned to the custody of the Commissioner for a period of hospitalization and treatment which is governed by the provisions of this chapter applicable to committed acquittees.
