or, in the case of a minor, if the individual is appropriate for services or placement
3under s. 48.13 (4) or (11) or 938.13 (4). The individual's status as a minor does not
4automatically establish a substantial probability of death, serious physical injury,
5serious physical debilitation or serious disease under this subdivision. Food, shelter
6or other care provided to an individual who is substantially incapable of providing
7the care for himself or herself, by any person other than a treatment facility, does not

18law enforcement officer or other person is not required to designate in the statement
19whether the subject individual is mentally ill, developmentally disabled, or drug
20dependent, but shall allege that he or she has cause to believe that the individual
21evidences one or more of these conditions. The statement of emergency detention
22shall be filed by the officer or other person with the detention facility at the time of
23admission, and with the court immediately thereafter. The filing of the statement
24has the same effect as a petition for commitment under s. 51.20. When, upon the
25advice of the treatment staff, the director of a facility specified in sub. (2) determines

1that the grounds for detention no longer exist, he or she shall discharge the

8of a pattern of recent acts or omissions, that there is a substantial probability of
9physical impairment or injury to himself or herself. The probability of physical
10impairment or injury is not substantial under this subd. 2. c. if reasonable provision
11for the subject individual's protection is available in the community and there is a
12reasonable probability that the individual will avail himself or herself of these
13services, if the individual is appropriate for protective placement under s. 55.06 may
14be provided protective placement or protective services under ch. 55,
or, in the case
15of a minor, if the individual is appropriate for services or placement under s. 48.13
16(4) or (11) or 938.13 (4). The subject individual's status as a minor does not
17automatically establish a substantial probability of physical impairment or injury
18under this subd. 2. c. Food, shelter or other care provided to an individual who is
19substantially incapable of obtaining the care for himself or herself, by a person other
20than a treatment facility, does not constitute reasonable provision for the subject
21individual's protection available in the community under this subd. 2. c.

2debilitation, or serious physical disease will imminently ensue unless the individual
3receives prompt and adequate treatment for this mental illness. No substantial
4probability of harm under this subd. 2. d. exists if reasonable provision for the
5individual's treatment and protection is available in the community and there is a
6reasonable probability that the individual will avail himself or herself of these
7services, if the individual is appropriate for protective placement under s. 55.06 may
8be provided protective placement or protective services under ch. 55,
or, in the case
9of a minor, if the individual is appropriate for services or placement under s. 48.13
10(4) or (11) or 938.13 (4). The individual's status as a minor does not automatically
11establish a substantial probability of death, serious physical injury, serious physical
12debilitation or serious disease under this subd. 2. d. Food, shelter or other care
13provided to an individual who is substantially incapable of obtaining the care for
14himself or herself, by any person other than a treatment facility, does not constitute
15reasonable provision for the individual's treatment or protection available in the
16community under this subd. 2. d.

AB785,44,2018 51.20 (1) (a) 2. e. For an individual, other than an individual who is alleged to
19be drug dependent or developmentally disabled, after the advantages and
20disadvantages of and alternatives to accepting a particular medication or treatment
21have been explained to him or her and because of mental illness, evidences either
22incapability of expressing an understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of
23accepting medication or treatment and the alternatives, or substantial incapability
24of applying an understanding of the advantages, disadvantages, and alternatives to
25his or her mental illness in order to make an informed choice as to whether to accept

1or refuse medication or treatment; and evidences a substantial probability, as
2demonstrated by both the individual's treatment history and his or her recent acts
3or omissions, that the individual needs care or treatment to prevent further
4disability or deterioration and a substantial probability that he or she will, if left
5untreated, lack services necessary for his or her health or safety and suffer severe
6mental, emotional, or physical harm that will result in the loss of the individual's
7ability to function independently in the community or the loss of cognitive or
8volitional control over his or her thoughts or actions. The probability of suffering
9severe mental, emotional, or physical harm is not substantial under this subd. 2. e.
10if reasonable provision for the individual's care or treatment is available in the
11community and there is a reasonable probability that the individual will avail
12himself or herself of these services or if the individual is appropriate for protective
13placement under s. 55.06
may be provided protective placement or protective
14services under ch. 55
. Food, shelter, or other care that is provided to an individual
15who is substantially incapable of obtaining food, shelter, or other care for himself or
16herself by any person other than a treatment facility does not constitute reasonable
17provision for the individual's care or treatment in the community under this subd.
182. e. The individual's status as a minor does not automatically establish a substantial
19probability of suffering severe mental, emotional, or physical harm under this subd.

24commencement of the proceedings as a result of a voluntary admission or, a
25commitment or protective placement ordered by a court under this section or s. 55.06,

7acts or omissions under par. (a) 2. c. or e., or recent behavior under par. (a) 2. d. may

9individual's treatment record, that the individual would be a proper subject for
10commitment if treatment were withdrawn. If the individual has been admitted
11voluntarily to an inpatient treatment facility for not more than 30 days prior to the
12commencement of the proceedings and remains under voluntary admission at the
13time of commencement, the requirements of a specific recent overt act, attempt or
14threat to act, or pattern of recent acts or omissions may be satisfied by a showing of
15an act, attempt or threat to act, or a pattern of acts or omissions which took place
16immediately previous to the voluntary admission. If the individual is committed
17under s. 971.14 (2) or (5) at the time proceedings are commenced, or has been
18discharged from the commitment immediately prior to the commencement of
19proceedings, acts, attempts, threats, omissions, or behavior of the subject individual
20during or subsequent to the time of the offense shall be deemed recent for purposes
21of par. (a) 2.
