State ex rel. of H.W.

SAM GRIFFITH, Justice.

Appellant H.W. appeals from a judgment ordering his commitment for temporary inpatient mental health services pursuant to Tex. Health & Safety Code Ann. § 574.034 (Vernon Supp.2002). After a hearing, the trial court ordered H.W. committed to Rusk State Hospital for a period not to exceed ninety days.1 In seven issues, H.W. challenges the legal and factual sufficiency of the evidence, raises various constitutional issues, and complains that he did not receive effective assistance of counsel. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
