Civil Commitment – extension involuntary meds

Laura B. appeals from orders of the circuit court extending her commitment and for involuntary medication and treatment. Laura argues that, with regard to the extension of commitment, “there was no evidence that she would become dangerous if treatment were withdrawn.” We conclude that the County established that Laura would be a proper subject for commitment if treatment were withdrawn. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
