1Opinion of the CourtJustice Morris

¶1 GM appeals two orders of the Thirteenth Judicial District Court, Yellowstone County, committing him to the Montana State Hospital for treatment of a mental disorder. We reverse.

¶2 We review the following issues on appeal:

¶3 Whether the District Court had subject matter jurisdiction to consider the State’s June 2, 2006, petition for civil commitment?

¶4 Whether the District Court’s statements of facts in its May 5, 2006, and June 9, 2006, orders of commitment sufficiently supported its determination that GM was suffering from a mental disorder and required commitment?
