Ms. M. McKinnon

The hospital requested a hearing under s. 672.81(2.1) of the Criminal Code to review a restriction of the accused's liberties after he was readmitted to the hospital from the community for a planned medication adjustment.

The accused, who was previously found not criminally responsible for assault, agreed to the admission to taper his clozapine dosage while his mental status was monitored.

The Review Board found that the restriction of liberty was significant but warranted, appropriate, and represented the least onerous and restrictive conditions for the accused.
