What it does
Existing law provides that a person sentenced to imprisonment in a state prison may be deprived of rights only as is reasonably related to legitimate penological interests. Existing law states that nothing in this provision shall be construed to permit the involuntary administration of psychotropic medication unless the process specified in Keyhea v. Rushen (1986) 178 Cal.App.3d 526 has been followed. Existing law further requires that this process be conducted by an administrative law judge.
