What Colo did was quote and attack the wrong person and then he of course had to back track. LOL |

In CA it's covered by 5150 of the Welfare and Institution Code A person can be committed for up to a 72 hour mental health observation if a law enforcement officer believes that he is either: 1. Gravely disabled 2. A Danger to himself 3. A danger to others At the mental health institute he is examined by a mental health professional and can be released prior to 72 hours. Keeping the person beyond 72 hrs. requires a court hearing (I can't recall if an extension is allowed prior to the court intervention). |

Colo and I disagree from time to time. The difference is that he isn't an asshole like you. Merry Christmas!

Ken, I can agree with that. My question really was meant to concern itself with long term incarceration. I am not certain a court should involuntarily commit a person who has committd no crime for a long period of time. |

I don't think anybody should be involuntarily incarcerated for longer than 72 hours, provided there is no solid evidence that makes it probable that they will be convicted of the crime in trial. The example that comes to mind is the holding of people in Cuba by our federal government. |
