Settled Insanity

Settled Insanity is a legal doctrine in criminal law that qualifies as a defense when a defendant's chronic and permanent mental disturbance, precipitated by long-term substance abuse, results in an enduring pathological condition indistinguishable from naturally occurring insanity, thereby distinguishing it from temporary intoxication or acute drug-induced psychosis.
