PEOPLE v. STEVENS.
Prior report: Cal.App., 153 Cal.Rptr.3d 384
The petition for review is granted. The issue to be briefed and argued is limited to the following: May an expert's testimony in support of a defendant's commitment under the Mentally Disordered Offender Act (Pen.Code § 2960 et seq.) that the defendant used force or violence in committing the commitment offense (Pen.Code § 2962, subd. (e)(P)) and that he received treatment for at least 90 days in the year before being paroled (Pen.Code § 2962, subd. (c)) be based entirely on hearsay?
