My husband has said he is going to get me committed, is it easy for him to do? It is NOT easy for him to do an involuntary committment with any degree of long term commitment, because that takes significant medical certifications of the need. However, it IS possible for him to do so on a 3 day basis, after making an Ex Parte petition to the court, explaining (truthfully or not) that you are a danger to yourself or others. If the evidence provided convinces the court sufficiently that you should be examined by a professional mental heath provider, you may be involuntarily committed for that examination purpose, for up to 72 hours. It is not the highest Burden of Proof, apparently, so I'd say that it is not terribly difficult to get an Order for this involuntary commitment for examination.
Dear Anita, I am very confused - as I see you left a derogatory rating against me and I have absolutely no idea why. My concern is that it perhaps my answer did not post for you to view? If so, please scroll up - you should be able to see it now. If you can't, please hit REPLY and let me know and I will re-post it.If you did inadvertently rate me incorrectly by Accident, please know that you can correct it by clicking a new rating now (one of the 3 to the right side).If you did defame me on purppose, I would ask that you instead follow up with me with any confusion or clarifications needed. I may 110% believe I provided you a full and clear answer to your question (and I quote): "My husband has said he is going to get me committed, is it easy for him to do?" -- but because the written word can be misinterpreted, perhaps you do not feel your question as answered, or perhaps you had a different question that you intended to ask, but didn't. THEREFORE, please do follow up with me so I can address the question you want answered - I can only answer the questions I see (and sometimes part of your post CAN fail to take, and so perhaps you typed it and it just didn't view on my screen). If you need follow up, please do so OR, correct your rating to reflect that your question has been served with a legal answer (even if it may not be the answer you wanted the law to reflect. Your rating of my time, effort and accuracy is extremely important, and I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to improve it, and am willing to spend additional time and effort to do so. I hope to hear back from you! And have a nice evening.Sincerely,Alexia
