Emergency commitment debate faces constitutional test in Iowa
Iowa officials propose legislative review of the emergency alcoholism treatment law after a Cerro Gordo court ruling. Frank Harrison says the procedure is probably unconstitutional but offers no solution. The law allows a physician or relative to seek five days of involuntary commitment, with Harnish in Linn County and staff deciding, then law enforcement transporting the person to a center. Harnish notes misuse in domestic disputes and cites a recent case where two versions of events were presented, ending with committal papers.
