The appellant appealed a disposition of the Ontario Review Board that continued his detention order rather than granting a conditional discharge.
The Board had concluded that a detention order was the least onerous and least restrictive disposition, primarily because it allowed for immediate return to the hospital in the event of decompensation.
The Court of Appeal found the Board's decision reasonable, noting the appellant's recent decompensation and the need to demonstrate longitudinal stability in the community.
The appeal was dismissed.
