1Opinion of the Court

THOMAS H. NEWTON, Presiding Judge.

BACKGROUND

Since 1980, Mr. James E. Lewis has been convicted of three sex crimes. Before his scheduled release from prison, the state began civil commitment proceedings against Mr. Lewis under Missouri’s sexually-violent predator (SVP) law, asserting that he is a sexually-violent predator. 1 See §§ 632.480-632.513. The jury returned a unanimous verdict and found that Mr. Lewis “should be committed to the Department of Mental Health for control, care, and treatment as a sexually violent predator.”
