Kern Regional Center v. M.W. CA5
In this appeal, M.W. challenges the sufficiency of the evidence supporting the conclusion he is a developmentally disabled person who is a danger to himself and/or others, resulting in his commitment to the custody of the California Department of State Hospitals at the Kern Regional Center (KRC). M.W. also challenges the term of his commitment as violating his right to equal protection under the constitution. KRC disputes these contentions. Following our review of the record and our consideration of the legal standards governing these forms of commitments, we affirm the findings supporting M.W.’s commitment to KRC, and further conclude there was no violation of M.W.’s constitutional rights. We affirm.
