Description
Defendant was arrested and charged with forgery in the second degree on May 27, 1979. Shortly thereafter, his court-appointed counsel filed a motion for a mental examination, supported by a report from a psychiatrist containing an opinion that defendant appeared "unable to comprehend various aspects of his situation." The request for examination was granted and a three-member panel of examiners consisting of a psychologist and two psychiatrists was appointed. The psychologist found him to be suffering from pre-senile dementia; the psychiatrists were less specific in diagnosis, submitting diagnostic findings of chronic brain syndrome. But the examiners agreed defendant did not understand the proceedings against him and that he was unable to assist in his own defense.
