WA Rev Code § 70.96A.155 (2013) What's This?

RCW 70.96A.155 Court-ordered treatment — Required notifications.

When any court orders a person to receive treatment under this chapter, the order shall include a statement that if the person is, or becomes, subject to supervision by the department of corrections, the person must notify the treatment provider and the person's chemical dependency treatment information must be shared with the department of corrections for the duration of the offender's incarceration and supervision. Upon a petition by a person who does not have a history of one or more violent acts, as defined in RCW 71.05.020, the court may, for good cause, find that public safety would not be enhanced by the sharing of this person's information.
