Lindquist v. Bangor Mental Health Institute
Supreme Judicial Court of Maine
Decided May 4, 2001PublishedCited by 1 opinion
1Opinion of the CourtCalkins, J.
[¶ 1] Heather L. Lindquist appeals from the judgment of the Superior Court (Pe-nobscot County, Marsano. J.) granting the motion to dismiss of Bangor Mental Health Institute (BMHI) and dismissing her petition for review of final agency action. Lindquist’s petition was dismissed on the ground that her attorney, who is employed by the Office of Advocacy within the Department of Mental Health, Mental Retardation, and Substance Abuse Services, is not authorized to represent Lind-quist in court. Because we conclude that Lindquist’s petition should not have been dismissed, we vacate the dismissal.
