IN RE ENGEL

No. CX-86-1802.

399 N.W.2d 623 (1987)

In re the Matter of Genevieve ENGEL, Alleged Mentally Ill.

Court of Appeals of Minnesota.

January 27, 1987.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Lawrence W. Frank, Estebo, Schnobrich, Frank & Hauschild, Ltd., Redwood Falls, for appellant Walter Engel.

Spencer H. Kvam, Wagemaker Law Office, Olivia, for respondent Genevieve Engel.

Thomas J. Simmons, Renville Co. Atty., Olivia, for respondent Renville County Human Services and Welfare Department.

Heard, considered and decided by POPOVICH, C.J., and PARKER and LESLIE, JJ.

MEMORANDUM OPINION

PARKER, Judge.

Genevieve Engel was committed to the Willmar Regional Treatment Center (WRTC) in 1984, and in 1986 Renville County brought a petition for her continued commitment. The trial court discharged the commitment, concluding that continued involuntary commitment was unnecessary because the less restrictive alternative of voluntary admission to a nursing home was adequate. The patient's husband appeals.
