Forms

The Forms Committee was established in December 2019 and was tasked with examining common mental health forms with the goal of producing a set of standardized forms that could be used in any county in the state.

The Forms Committee is chaired by Judge Dave Jahn. The Committee met regularly in 2020 and has continued working into 2021, on forms related to Emergency Detention, Order of Protective Custody, Court-Ordered Mental Health and IDD services, Jail and Magistration, Incompetency, Psychoactive Medication, and Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities proceedings.
