OPINION

SCHUMACHER, Judge.

Phillip Jay Blodgett was committed for an indeterminate period as a psychopathic personality, and he appeals. This court granted motions by the Minnesota Civil Liberties Union to file a brief as an amicus curiae and by the attorney general to intervene. This court also allowed the MCLU and the state to file supplemental references to the record after oral argument. We affirm.
