Rule 30. Offender Treatment Programs

(a) When Offender Treatment May Be Ordered. After a hearing of which the defendant had notice and in which the defendant had an opportunity to participate, a judicial officer may order the defendant to complete a domestic violence offender treatment program that is approved by the department of health services or a probation department or any other program deemed appropriate by the court. See A.R.S. § 13-3602(G)(5). (b) Noncompliance with Offender Treatment. If a judicial officer becomes aware that a defendant has failed to comply with an order to complete a domestic violence offender treatment program, the judicial officer may refer the matter to an appropriate law enforcement agency. A superior court judicial officer may also set the matter for an Order to Show Cause hearing. See A.R.S. § 13-3602(R).
