South Dakota Drug Court
Drug court focuses on treatment and supervision of repeat DUI offenders rather than a penitentiary sentence. Although not everyone is eligible, consent from the State's Attorney's Office is a necessary step in the Drug Court process in South Dakota.
Sentence Alternative For Methamphetamines
First time felony drug offenders may be able to receive supervision and treatment that can provide a chance to have the felony conviction removed from their record. However, not all people can participate, and the State's Attorney's Office needs to consent to inclusion in the Methamphetamine Sentencing Alternative program.
