Clients referred from the court for drug or alcohol rehabilitation are typically referred because they are being given a chance to accept rehabilitation instead of jail time, other charges, fines, etc. While this is more prevalent among first time offenders, it can occur at any point including while the defendant is already incarcerated. There are different types of programs that offenders can be referred to, and it usually all depends on which programs are available in Mistletoe and the type of substance the person requires treatment for.
There are programs that work exclusively with the courts to administer to this explicit group of clientele, and are usually state funded or are available at little or no cost to the client. There are also private drug and alcohol recovery facilities that can be approved by the court if there is a specific type of treatment that the person needs or wants that a state-funded program can't provide. The defendant's legal representation can propose such alternatives to the judge for acceptance. There are even drug and alcohol rehab centers that provide services from the correctional institutions themselves, where clients are typically in a better position for early release or other benefits when enrolling in substance abuse rehabilitation services while serving their time for a drug related offense or a DUI/DWI.
