VA HB1105

Prohibits inpatient hospital treatment for defendants charged only with misdemeanors who are found incompetent to stand trial, limiting treatment options to outpatient care, evaluation for temporary detention, or dismissal of charges

Requires courts to dismiss misdemeanor charges when a defendant faces both felony and misdemeanor charges and is found incompetent, allowing restoration treatment to continue only on felony charges

Removes the requirement for competency evaluators to specifically assess whether misdemeanor defendants charged with certain offenses (larceny, trespassing, property destruction, public intoxication, disorderly conduct, bail violations) should be evaluated for temporary detention

Maintains the 45-day treatment limit for misdemeanor defendants charged with larceny or trespassing-related offenses, after which the court must release, commit, or certify the defendant and may dismiss charges

Amends Virginia Code sections 19.2-169.1, 19.2-169.2, and 19.2-169.3 governing competency evaluations and treatment in criminal proceedings
