Notice of Defendant's Arrival at Alaska Psychiatric Institute (DAPI) is a legal document that is issued by the court to notify the Alaska Psychiatric Institute (API) of the arrival of a defendant who is being held in custody for mental health evaluation. The notice is intended to help API staff prepare for the defendant's arrival and provide them with any necessary information in advance. The notice is typically issued by the court prior to the defendant's arrival and must include the defendant's name, date of birth, court order number, and any other relevant information. Depending on the court order, the notice may also require API staff to provide the court with regular updates on the defendant's progress and status while in their care. There are two main types of Notice of Defendant's Arrival at Alaska Psychiatric Institute: Temporary and Permanent. Temporary DAPI is issued for defendants who are held only for a short period of time, such as for an assessment or observation. Permanent DAPI is issued for defendants who are held for longer periods of time, such as for treatment or rehabilitation.
