[¶1] R.S. appeals from the district court’s continuing treatment order. He argues the finding he is mentally ill and a person requiring continuing treatment is not supported by clear and convincing evidence. We review the district court’s findings under a more probing clearly erroneous standard. Interest of Doe, 2019 ND 23, ¶ 4, 921 N.W.2d 403. We conclude sufficient evidence existed for the district court to find R.S. is mentally ill and is a person requiring continuing treatment. We affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
[¶2] Jon J. Jensen, C.J. Daniel J. Crothers Lisa Fair McEvers Jerod E. Tufte Douglas A. Bahr
