Abstract
In order to develop criteria for forensic psychiatric assessment of drug-related psychotic states related to the period of a socially dangerous act, 26 male defendants in criminal cases were examined using the clinical and psychopathological method. The algorithm proposed as a result of the study includes the optimal sequence of solving all expert problems in criminal proceedings with the criteria for substantiating the decisions made. Criteria are identified that allow retrospectively differentiating a psychotic state from acute drug intoxication with individual psychopathological inclusions. It is established that the criminal procedural capacity of these individuals is impaired due to the protracted nature of psychosis or affective disorders that developed in the forensic investigative situation. The criteria for potential social danger of individuals
