Forms

258 MENTAL HEALTH COURTS

Form 48: Assessment Order of the Court

This form is contained in the Criminal Code. It has been modif‌ied slightly

in order to permit the administrator of the hospital to return the accused

to court earlier than anticipated if the assessment is complete prior to the

return date on the information.

When an accused is to be returned to court earlier than anticipated, the

administrator issues a letter which authorizes the wagon to pick up the ac-

cused and take the accused to court. The administrator contacts the court

clerk at court room 102, who adds the information to the list. Duty counsel

will notify counsel if the accused has retained counsel or, alternatively, take

instructions.
