People v. Martin

Defendant was found unfit to stand trial and was committed to the custody of the Department of Human Services for a period of seven years. Defendant appealed, arguing that section 3-6-3 of the Unified Code of Corrections applies to determining the length of a civil commitment and that he was entitled to serve only 85 percent of his commitment term. The appellate court affirmed, finding that the legislature did not intend for the 2009 amendment to the statute to apply good time credit to defendants found “not not guilty” who were subject to involuntary civil commitment. (LAVIN and COGHLAN, concurring)
