Hospital confinement shall not exceed ____ days and upon application of the director may be authorized by the court for an additional confinement not exceeding___DAYS if needed to complete the examination.

• A. 60 days; 30 days
• B. 30 days; 60 days
• C. 30 days; 30 days
• D. 40 days; 20 days

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is the time limits for hospital confinement to complete an examination. The law sets the initial confinement at 60 days. If the examination isn’t finished, the director can apply to the court for an additional confinement, but the extension is limited to 30 days to complete the examination. This structure provides enough time for thorough evaluation while keeping the process bounded. Options that mix up the numbers—such as proposing a shorter initial period or a longer extension—don’t match these specified limits.
