KOEHLER, Justice.
The State of Texas, acting at the request and in behalf of the Texas Department of Mental Health and Mental Retardation, brought suit for reimbursement of costs in the amount of $13,318.97 associated with the support, maintenance, and treatment of Bill Brian Roark while he was a judicially committed patient at Vernon State Hospital. In a non-jury trial, the court after hearing the evidence rendered judgment for the State in the amount of $6,659. We reform the judgment to award the State of Texas the sum of $13,318.97, and as reformed, we affirm.
