Competence Data

These spreadsheets compiles data on statutes and court rules across fifty states, Washington, D.C., and the federal government, which will be helpful to researchers, practitioners, and reformers looking at the similarities and differences between approaches in competency evaluation and restoration across jurisdictions. The data is limited to the rules written in each jurisdiction’s statutory code or court rules. Jurisdictions may have procedures on the ground in addition to the rules laid out here. The Competency Data Summary Narrative explains each category in further detail.
