insufficient to establish that G.A. was "gravely disabled" as a result of a mental

disorder. See In re Det. of LaBelle, 107 Wn.2d 196, 220, 728 P.2d 138(1986);

former RCW 71.05.020(17). Accordingly, we reverse the commitment order and

remand for further proceedings. In light of our decision, we decline to address the rrl

remaining issues in appellant's brief. -n
