November 13, 2013.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Pamela Jo Bondi , Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Cerese Crawford Taylor , Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Respondent.

CASANUEVA, Judge.

Yusef Furqan petitions this court for a writ of certiorari, claiming that the circuit court departed from the essential requirements of the law in denying him the appointment of independent evaluators to opine whether he continued to meet the criteria for involuntary commitment. The State has conceded that the circuit court erred in denying Mr. Furqan's request, and we grant the petition.1
