What is the current state of the law on mandatory participation in court-ordered programs?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Olascoaga, D072062 (Cal. App. 2018):

For those if directed conditions requiring participation in court-ordered programs, another court has noted that "[t]he trial court is poorly equipped to micromanage selection of a program, both because it lacks the ability to remain apprised of currently available programs and, more fundamentally, because entry into a particular program may depend on mercurial questions of timing and availability." (People v. Penoli (1996)
