Introduced by: William H. Fralin, Jr. | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Voluntary commitment as sexually violent predator. Allows a judge, after a probable cause hearing to determine a person's status as a sexually violent predator, for purposes of indeterminate commitment, inquire of the respondent if he acknowledges that he is a sexually violent predator as defined in § 37.2-900 and if he is therefore willing to submit to commitment and treatment without proceeding to trial for such a determination. If the respondent so acknowledges and so submits, the court shall proceed as if a determination that he is a sexually violent predator had been made at trial.
