Iowa Supreme Court frees patient after improvement in mental state
The Iowa Supreme Court ruled a psychiatric patient at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics cannot be forced to continue treatment once his condition improves. Bryan, admitted in 1986 at 21, consented to drugs and shock when treated, but his release request was upheld as he no longer posed danger. The ruling also covers other decisions on artificial insemination coverage, an item veto case, and an excessive wrongful death award.
