Annotate this CaseAppellant, a severe alcoholic, consented to his initial commitment to the Montana State Hospital. When Appellant’s commitment was extended, he was transferred to the Montana Mental Health Nursing Care Center. A psychology specialist at the Nursing Care Center subsequently petitioned the district court to again extend Appellant’s commitment. After a hearing, the district court granted the petition and issued an order for recommitment requiring that Appellant be committed to the Nursing Care Center for a period not to exceed one year. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the district court’s order met the statutory requirements for extending commitment under Mont. Code Ann. 53-21-127 and -128.
