Section 12-23A-3 Legislative intent. (a) The Legislature recognizes that a critical
need exists in this state for the criminal justice system to more effectively address the
number of defendants who are involved with substance abuse or addiction. For the criminal
justice system to maintain credibility, court and community alternatives for the substance
