FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. 4257
2020 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
This bill would allow the court to appoint one qualified psychiatrist or one qualified psychologist to evaluate the
defendant if there is a question about the defendants competency to proceed in a criminal case. It also establishes a
procedure by which the court and prosecuting authority will be notified if, after a criminal case has been dismissed due to
the defendants lack of fitness to proceed, the defendant is restored and is competent to stand trial.
The Department of Law does not anticipate a fiscal impact from this legislation.
