Relates to determining the capacity of a defendant to stand trial

This bill amends New York's criminal procedure law to require psychiatric examiners to specifically assess whether "restoration services" could realistically restore a defendant's competence to stand trial within a reasonable timeframe. Restoration services include medication support, competency instruction, mock trials, and symptom management designed to help defendants understand charges and participate in their defense. It directly affects defendants deemed "incapacitated" (unable to understand proceedings due to mental health issues) during criminal trials. The law mandates examiners include this assessment in their reports, clarifies what constitutes "appropriate institutions" for providing services, and defines restoration services as distinct from general mental health treatment.
