Offense(s) charged
I am charged with a violation of section 14-227a, 14-227g, 15-133, or 15-140n of the Connecticut General Statutes or a violation of Public
Act 16-126 section 1 or section 2(a)(1) or (2), and I am applying for the Pretrial Alcohol Education Program.
If my application is granted:
1. I agree to give the State more time to prosecute me (the tolling of any statute of limitations for this offense(s) and to waive my right to a
speedy trial) for the offense(s) listed above if I do not complete the program.
2. I understand that the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) and the Court Support Services Division (CSSD)
will make a recommendation to the court about whether I should take part in 10 or 15 counseling sessions in an alcohol intervention
program or at least 12 sessions in a substance abuse treatment program. I also agree to begin the alcohol intervention or substance
abuse treatment program that the court orders me into within 90 days unless the court gives me more time, and I understand that I can
wait to begin my program until after the suspension of my license is over. I also agree to finish the program that the court orders me into,
and after I finish my program, if CSSD thinks I need more treatment, I agree to accept any additional treatment in a treatment program
recommended by a DMHAS contractor, or to be placed in a state-licensed treatment program that meets standards set by DMHAS.
3. I agree to take part in at least one (1) Victim Impact Panel if the court orders me to.
4. If I decide to enter the program ordered by the court after the suspension of my license is over, I agree to tell CSSD the date that my
license was suspended and how long my license was suspended for.
5. I agree to pay the court a nonrefundable program fee of $350 if I am ordered into the 10 session alcohol intervention program, or $500 if
I am ordered into the 15 session alcohol intervention program (these fees may be changed by the legislature), or to pay the costs of
taking part in a substance abuse treatment program if I am ordered into a treatment program, except that, if I cannot pay or if I am
indigent, I will file with the court an affidavit saying I cannot pay or that I am indigent, and the court may decide that I do not have to pay
some or all of the program fee or costs of the treatment program if it finds that I am indigent or unable to pay.
I give my permission to CSSD to get information about any criminal or motor vehicle program I may have been in in this state or in any
other jurisdiction so that CSSD can decide if I can be allowed into the program. If I am telling the court that I cannot pay or that I am
indigent by filing an affidavit of my inability to pay or of my indigency, I give my permission to CSSD to get information to decide if I cannot
pay or if I am indigent.
("X" one of the following)
I plan to claim that I cannot pay or that I am indigent
I plan to pay the program fee.
By signing this form, I am saying that I understand all of the information above, and I request that I be allowed into the Pretrial
Alcohol Education Program under section 54-56g of the Connecticut General Statutes.
