William Pryatel, M.D., Petitioner and Appellee v. R.S., Respondent and Appellant (2020)

Supreme Court of North Dakota.

In the INTEREST OF R.S. William Pryatel, M.D., Petitioner and Appellee v. R.S., Respondent and Appellant

No. 20200045

Decided: March 19, 2020

Leo A. Ryan, Jamestown, ND, for petitioner and appellee; submitted on brief. Andrew Marquart, Fargo, ND, for respondent and appellant; submitted on brief.

[¶1] R.S. appeals from the district court's order granting the request for continuing treatment. R.S. argues that there lacked clear and convincing evidence to support he was mentally ill and required treatment as mandated by N.D.C.C. § 25-03.1-02. We conclude the district court's findings are supported by clear and convincing evidence and are not clearly erroneous. We affirm under N.D.R.App.35.1(a)(2).

Per Curiam.
