176.057 Effect of finding of guilty but mentally ill or acceptance of
such plea.
1. If a defendant is found guilty but
mentally ill pursuant to NRS 175.533 or
the court accepts the defendant’s plea of guilty but mentally ill entered
pursuant to NRS 174.035, and the court
finds by a preponderance of the evidence that:
(a) The defendant is not mentally ill at the time
of sentencing, the court shall impose any sentence that the court is authorized
to impose upon a defendant who pleads or is found guilty of the same offense;
or
(b) The defendant is mentally ill at the time of
sentencing, the court shall:
(1) Impose any sentence that the court is
authorized to impose upon a defendant who pleads or is found guilty of the same
offense; and
(2) Include in that sentence an order that
the defendant, during the period of confinement or probation, be given or
obtain such treatment as is medically indicated for the defendant’s mental
illness.
2. If the sentence of a defendant includes
a period of confinement at a state correctional facility, the Department of
Corrections shall separate such a person from the general population of the
prison and shall not return the person to that population until a licensed
psychiatrist or psychologist employed by the Department finds that the person
no longer requires acute mental health care. If the person is returned to the
general population, the person must continue to be given or obtain such
treatment as is medically indicated for the person’s mental illness.
