Opinion

Submitted July 5, reversed November 14, 2019

In the Matter of N. H., a Person Alleged to have Mental Illness. STATE OF OREGON, Respondent, v. N. H., Appellant. Marion County Circuit Court 18CC02710; A169596 451 P3d 1027

Michael Newman, Senior Judge. Alexander C. Cambier and Multnomah Defenders, Inc., filed the brief for appellant. Ellen F. Rosenblum, Attorney General, Benjamin Gutman, Solicitor General, and Patrick M. Ebbett, Assistant Attorney General, filed the brief for respondent. Before Armstrong, Presiding Judge, and Tookey, Judge, and Aoyagi, Judge. PER CURIAM Reversed. 576 State v. N. H.

PER CURIAM Appellant challenges the order continuing appel- lant’s commitment to the Oregon Health Authority for a period not to exceed 180 days. ORS 426.301; ORS 426.303; ORS 426.307. Appellant contends that the trial court erred because the record lacks clear and convincing evidence that appellant continues to be a person with a mental ill- ness who is in need of further treatment. ORS 426.307; ORS 426.005(1)(f) (defining “person with mental illness”). The state concedes that the evidence was legally insufficient to support appellant’s continued commitment and that the order should be reversed. We agree and accept the state’s concession. Consequently, we reverse the order of continued commitment. Reversed.
