3050. Upon conviction of a defendant of a misdemeanor or infraction
or following revocation of probation previously granted for a
misdemeanor or infraction, whether or not sentence has been imposed,
if it appears to the judge that the defendant may be addicted or by
reason of repeated use of narcotics may be in imminent danger of
becoming addicted to narcotics, such judge shall adjourn the
proceedings or suspend the imposition or execution of the sentence,
certify the defendant to the superior court and order the district
attorney to file a petition for a commitment of the defendant to the
Director of Corrections for confinement in the narcotic detention,
treatment and rehabilitation facility.
Upon the filing of such a petition, the superior court shall order
the defendant to be examined by one physician. At the request of the
defendant, the court shall order the defendant to be examined by a
second physician. At least one day before the time of the examination
as fixed by the court order, a copy of the petition and order for
examination shall be personally delivered to the defendant. A written
report of the examination by the physician or physicians shall be
delivered to the court, and if the report is to the effect that the
person is not addicted nor in imminent danger of addiction, it shall
so certify and return the defendant to the court which certified such
defendant to the superior court for such further proceedings as the
judge of such court deems warranted. If the report is to the effect
that the defendant is addicted or is by reason of the repeated use of
narcotics in imminent danger of addiction, further proceedings shall
be conducted in compliance with Sections 3104, 3105, 3106, and 3107.
If, after a hearing, the judge finds that the defendant is a
narcotic addict, or is by reason of the repeated use of narcotics in
imminent danger of becoming addicted thereto, and is not ineligible
for the program under the application of Section 3052, he or she
shall make an order committing such defendant to the custody of the
Director of Corrections for confinement in the facility until such
time as he or she is discharged pursuant to Article 5 (commencing
with Section 3200), except as this chapter permits earlier discharge.
If, upon the hearing, the judge shall find that the defendant is not
a narcotic addict and is not in imminent danger of becoming addicted
to narcotics, the judge shall so certify and return the defendant to
the court which certified the defendant to the superior court for
such further proceedings as the judge of the court which certified
the defendant to the superior court deems warranted.

revocation of probation previously granted for a felony, and upon
imposition of sentence, if it appears to the judge that the defendant
may be addicted or by reason of repeated use of narcotics may be in
imminent danger of becoming addicted to narcotics the judge shall
suspend the execution of the sentence and order the district attorney
to file a petition for commitment of the defendant to the Director
of Corrections for confinement in the narcotic detention, treatment,
and rehabilitation facility unless, in the opinion of the judge, the
defendant's record and probation report indicate such a pattern of
criminality that he or she does not constitute a fit subject for
commitment under this section.
Upon the filing of the petition, the court shall order the
defendant to be examined by one physician. However, the examination
may be waived by a defendant if the defendant has been examined in
accordance with Section 1203.03 of the Penal Code and that
examination encompassed whether defendant is addicted or is in
imminent danger of addiction, and if the defendant is represented by
counsel and competent to understand the effect of the waiver. In
cases where a physician's report is waived by the defendant, the
Department of Corrections may perform an evaluation and provide a
report as to the defendant's addiction or imminent danger of
addiction. If the Department of Corrections determines that the
defendant is not addicted or in imminent danger of addiction, the
defendant shall be returned to the sentencing court for resentencing.
The examination may also be waived upon stipulation by the
defendant, his or her attorney, the prosecutor, and the court that
the defendant is addicted or is in imminent danger of addiction. If a
physician's report is prepared, at the request of the defendant, the
court shall order the defendant to be examined by a second
physician. At least one day before the time of the examination as
fixed by the court order, a copy of the petition and order for
examination shall be personally delivered to the defendant. A written
report of the examination by the physician or physicians shall be
delivered to the court, and if the report is to the effect that the
person is not addicted nor in imminent danger of addiction, it shall
so certify and return the defendant to the department of the superior
court that directed the filing of the petition for the ordering of
the execution of the sentence. The court may, unless otherwise
prohibited by law, modify the sentence or suspend the imposition of
the sentence. If the report is to the effect that the defendant is
addicted or is by reason of the repeated use of narcotics in imminent
danger of addiction, further proceedings shall be conducted in
compliance with Sections 3104, 3105, 3106, and 3107.
If, after a hearing, the judge finds that the defendant is a
narcotic addict, or is by reason of the repeated use of narcotics in
imminent danger of becoming addicted to narcotics, the judge shall
make an order committing the person to the custody of the Director of
Corrections for confinement in the facility until a time that he or
she is discharged pursuant to Article 5 (commencing with Section
3200), except as this chapter permits earlier discharge. If, upon the
hearing, the judge finds that the defendant is not a narcotic addict
and is not in imminent danger of becoming addicted to narcotics, the
judge shall so certify and return the defendant to the department of
the superior court that directed the filing of the petition for the
ordering of execution of sentence. The court may, unless otherwise
prohibited by law, modify the sentence or suspend the imposition of

person committed pursuant to this article, the Director of
Corrections concludes that the person, because of excessive
criminality or for other relevant reason, including the person's
eligibility for treatment pursuant to Section 1210.1 of the Penal

or upon notification of such commitment, whichever is sooner, the
Director of Corrections shall notify the court that committed the
person pursuant to this article of the subsequent commitment. Upon
receipt of notification of the subsequent commitment the court that
had committed the person pursuant to this article shall automatically
terminate the commitment and shall promptly set for hearing the

promptly set for hearing the matter of the sentencing of the
defendant upon the conviction that subsequently resulted in the
original civil commitment.

further proceedings as that court may deem necessary.
3050. Upon conviction of a defendant of a misdemeanor or infraction
or following revocation of probation previously granted for a
misdemeanor or infraction, whether or not sentence has been imposed,

defendant, the court shall order the defendant to be examined by a
second physician. At least one day before the time of the examination
as fixed by the court order, a copy of the petition and order for
examination shall be personally delivered to the defendant. A written
report of the examination by the physician or physicians shall be
delivered to the court, and if the report is to the effect that the

so certify and return the defendant to the court which certified such
defendant to the superior court for such further proceedings as the
judge of such court deems warranted. If the report is to the effect
that the defendant is addicted or is by reason of the repeated use of
narcotics in imminent danger of addiction, further proceedings shall
be conducted in compliance with Sections 3104, 3105, 3106, and 3107.
If, after a hearing, the judge finds that the defendant is a
narcotic addict, or is by reason of the repeated use of narcotics in
