The New Jersey Drug Court Application is used to apply for admission into a court-supervised drug treatment program for individuals charged with nonviolent drug-related crimes. This program is designed to reduce recidivism and provide an alternative to incarceration. There are two types of New Jersey Drug Court Applications: the Standard Drug Court Application and the Accelerated Drug Court Application. The Standard Drug Court Application is a comprehensive application for individuals seeking admission to a drug court program. This application requires the individual to provide information about their criminal history, drug use, and family/community support. The individual will also need to provide statements from their attorney and a qualified drug counselor. Once approved, the individual will enter the drug court program and participate in court-supervised drug treatment. The Accelerated Drug Court Application is a streamlined application for individuals who have already completed a drug treatment program and are seeking an alternative to incarceration. This application requires the individual to provide information about their criminal history and post-treatment drug use. The individual will also need to provide statements from their attorney and a qualified drug counselor. Once approved, the individual will be sentenced to a period of probation and be required to complete any necessary post-treatment services. Both types of New Jersey Drug Court Applications must be approved by the presiding judge and may be subject to additional legal requirements.
