IN RE: WOLFF (2022)

Supreme Court of North Dakota.

IN RE: WOLFF Birch P. Burdick, State's Attorney, Petitioner and Appellee v. Jeffrey Keith Wolff, Respondent and Appellant

No. 20220160

Decided: December 22, 2022

Ryan J. Younggren, Assistant State's Attorney, Fargo, ND, for petitioner and appellee. Tyler J. Morrow, Grand Forks, ND, for respondent and appellant.

[¶1] Jeffrey Wolff appeals from an order denying his petition for discharge from civil commitment as a sexually dangerous individual. Wolff argues the district court erred when it found there was clear and convincing evidence that he has a serious difficulty controlling his behavior. Applying our modified clearly erroneous standard of review, see In re Carter, 2019 ND 67, ¶ 3, 924 N.W.2d 112, we summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).

Per Curiam.

[¶2] Jon J. Jensen, C.J. Gerald W. VandeWalle Daniel J. Crothers Lisa Fair McEvers Jerod E. Tufte
