Syllabus

A district court's finding respondent is mentally ill and requires treatment will not be reversed unless it is clearly erroneous. To show a respondent is a person requiring treatment, the petitioner must prove by clear and convincing evidence that the person is mentally ill and there is a reasonable risk that, if the person is not treated, he poses a serious risk of harm to himself, others, or property.
