23A-27-46. Recovery of defendant--Notice--Final sentencing. When the administrator of the human services center determines that the defendant has recovered from his mental disease or defect to such an extent that he is no longer in need of custody for care or treatment in such a facility, he shall promptly file a certificate to that effect with the clerk of the court that ordered the commitment. The clerk shall send a copy of the certificate to defendant's counsel and to the prosecuting attorney. If, at the time of the filing of the certificate, the provisional sentence imposed pursuant to § 23A-27-45 has not expired, the court shall proceed finally to sentencing and may modify the provisional sentence.
