Can someone with a non violent misdemeanor warrant in Travis County admit themselves into State Hospital to receive mental health care and serve their sentence there instead of jail? Or will they just be transferred to jail after they receive treatment?
In my experience they can turn themselves in to the hospital but unless the court places a hold on them they will not get credit for the time they serve. I think you would be better off hiring a lawyer to work that deal out beforehand. Good luck to you.
