Opinion
WOOLPERT, J.
This appeal is a consolidated action brought by two Mexican nationals who illegally entered California and later were convicted of narcotic offenses in separate proceedings. After each man was sent to the California Rehabilitation Center (CRC), the Director of Corrections (Director) found them unfit for narcotics abuse treatment and returned them to court for further criminal proceedings. They were rejected because each was an “illegal” and Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) “holds” had been placed on them.
