P. v. Harris
Following a court determination that she was not guilty by reason of insanity on two felony charges, Sunni Gayle Harris (appellant) was committed to a state hospital and then placed on outpatient status. She appeals an order revoking that status and recommitting her to Napa State Hospital (NSH) pursuant to Penal Code section 1609, contending that section violates substantive due process because it permits the revocation of outpatient status without a finding that the person presents a danger to others as a result of a current mental defect or disease. She also contends there was no substantial evidence that she posed a danger to others while on outpatient status. Court reject her contentions and affirm.
