Who is eligible for CHART?

CHART - Drug Treatment Court will accept those persons charged with felonies who are eligible for release. The felony with which the defendant is currently charged must be a non-violent offense (i.e. no violent or sex offenses, either felony or misdemeanor.) The offense must be drug driven, but not be part of a commercial operation. Large amounts of drugs recovered in the arrest, which indicate that the defendant was a dealer for profit, will disqualify the defendant. Only a person addicted to one or more illegal drugs will be admitted.
