California Court of Appeal November 14, 1995, B095107 (People v. Superior Court (Jump))

Opinion

STONE (S. J.), P. J.

Here we hold that the superior court located within the county in which an inmate is convicted of the crime that serves as the foundation for his placement in a state hospital as a mentally disordered offender (MDO) is the proper court to hear a petition for involuntary treatment under Penal Code section 2970.
