The appellant appealed a Consent and Capacity Board decision confirming his status as an involuntary psychiatric patient under the Mental Health Act.
The appellant argued the Board failed to consider his mobility issues when assessing his risk of harm to others and erred by refusing to make comments regarding his long-term detention.
The Superior Court of Justice dismissed the appeal, finding the Board's decision was reasonable, supported by evidence of recent assaults, and that the Board was not required to make comments on the conditions of detention.
