A pre-recorded streaming VIDEO replay of one session from the February 2017 live seminar, 47th Annual Criminal Law Seminar.
Cosponsored with the Criminal Law Section of the Virginia State Bar
Mental health issues in the criminal justice system are an inescapable problem. Jurisdictions are facing increased pressure to adequately identify, evaluate, and treat mental illness before criminal culpability can be determined. This portion of the program addresses one jurisdiction’s attempt to address these issues through the formation of a mental health (divert) docket.
