Colorado Code
Part 4 - Parole Eligibility and Discharge From Custody
§ 17-22.5-403.5. Special Needs Parole - Repeal

(I.5) Criminal history; risk and needs assessment scores; institutional disciplinary history; work history; an inmate's participation in any programs, treatment, vocational training, or education; and other relevant information regarding risk and risk-reduction factors and any additional relevant information that is requested by the parole board that is in the possession of the department;

(4.5) If an offender is determined to be incompetent to proceed pursuant to subsection (4) of this section, the court may order the department to provide or arrange for the delivery of appropriate restoration services in any setting authorized by law, by an order of the court, or by any other action as provided by law, including civil commitment. Nothing in this section requires the department of human services to take physical custody of an offender for restoration services. The department of human services is not responsible for conducting the competency evaluation. If the court determines that there is not a substantial probability of the offender being restored to competency, the department may refer the inmate for special needs parole with a special needs parole plan pursuant to this section and notify the public defender liaison described in section 21-1-104 (6).
