23A-27-40. Probation for defendant guilty but mentally ill--Treatment as condition. If a defendant is found "guilty but mentally ill" and is placed on probation, the sentencing court, upon recommendation of a licensed psychiatrist, shall make treatment a condition of probation. Reports as specified by the sentencing court shall be filed with the court service department and the sentencing court. The defendant's failure to continue treatment, except by agreement with the treating agency and the sentencing court, is basis for commencing a probation revocation hearing and grounds for probation revocation.
