CAMERON, Vice Chief Justice.
This is a petition for review of a decision and opinion of the Court of Appeals, Division One, Department A, upholding a verdict and judgment of the Superior Court of Maricopa County denying the release of Ralph Alexander Clemons from confinement in the Arizona State Hospital.
On review we must determine whether § 13-1621.01 A.R.S. is in conflict with the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution as interpreted by the United States Supreme Court in Jackson v. Indiana, 406 U.S. 715, 92 S.Ct. 1845, 32 L.Ed.2d 435 (1972).
