I do have an important question, though. I believe I told you that about ten days ago, the social worker told me that if we changed his status to 'involuntary' from voluntary, he would get a bed faster at the new facility they are trying to get him into...Well, I received a letter from the County Government, alerting me to a 'COMMITMENT HEARING' this Friday, or maybe Thursday (if he is transferred). What are those hearings like? He wouldn't be in attendance, would he? Any light you can shed on this process would be greatly appreciated!
Here is a 56 page pdf about the procedure for New J.

My very best advice is that you do not commit him.
