P. v. Tyler
In June 2005 Arthur James Tyler pleaded guilty in case No. CN194973 to a misdemeanor of making a criminal threat (Pen. Code,[1] 422, 17, subd. (b)(4)). The court placed him on three years' probation. In April 2006 Tyler was charged in case No. CN209725 with two misdemeanor counts of disobeying a court order ( 166, subd. (a)(4)). The court suspended criminal proceedings in both cases pending determination of Tyler's mental competence ( 1368). In May the court found that Tyler was not mentally competent to stand trial, ordered him committed to the psychiatric security unit (PSU) of the San Diego County jail for a maximum term of one year and authorized the involuntary administration of antipsychotic medication. Tyler appealed. (People v. Tyler(Feb. 13, 2007, D048730) [nonpub. opn.].) Appeal dismissed.
