Iowa Code § 125.89: Respondents charged with or convicted of crime.

1. If a court orders a respondent placed at a facility for evaluation and treatment under section 125.83 at a time when the respondent has been convicted of a public offense, or when there is pending against the respondent an unresolved formal charge of a public offense, and the respondent’s liberty has therefore been restricted in any manner, the findings of fact required by section 125.83 shall clearly so inform the administrator of the facility where the respondent is placed.

2. The commitment powers of the court under section 124.409 supersede the procedures and requirements of this subchapter.
