Full Opinion (html_with_citations)
In this mental commitment case, appellant contends that, among other things, the evidence was insufficient to establish by clear and convincing evidence that, at the time of the hearing, he suffered from a mental disorder that caused him to be a danger to himself or to others. ORS 426.130(1). The state concedes that the evidence is not sufficient. On de novo review, State v. O’Neill, 274 Or 59, 61, 545 P2d 97 (1976), we agree that the evidence is insufficient.
Reversed.
