§ 30:6c-6.

Any individual adjudged a disorderly person under the provisions of N.J.S. 2A:170-8 , 1 or under the provisions of chapter 113, P.L.1962, 2 shall be placed upon probation on condition that such individual immediately voluntarily

admit himself to a State or county mental hospital or other similar facility designated

by the Commissioner of Institutions and Agencies, there to receive medical and other

care and treatment designed to effect a cure for his condition and his rehabilitation,

and on condition that such individual upon release or discharge from such hospital

or similar facility receive specialized medically oriented aftercare treatment for

the balance of the time that the individual shall remain on probation. Such period of hospital treatment shall not exceed the maximum period of confinement

medical treatment and leaves the hospital, he shall be returned to the court as a

probation violator and the court may either commit him to a correctional institution

until released in the manner provided by law or upon recommendation of the Commissioner

of the Department of Institutions and Agencies commit him to a State or county mental

hospital or similar facility designated by the commissioner, there to be confined

for the period of time remaining if he had been sentenced to correctional confinement

in the first instance, unless sooner released or discharged, in which event he shall

return to a probation status. 1
