On July 3, 2019, twenty-six-year-old J.K. was observed standing in the middle
of a street with moving traffic. He was aggressive with the police officers who
removed him from the street and transported him to the emergency room at
Community North Hospital (“the Hospital”). Shortly after his admission, the
treating physician filed an application for emergency detention and a
physician’s statement. Dr. Syed Hasan examined J.K. and concluded that J.K.
suffers from schizoaffective disorder, and as a result of his condition, he is
gravely disabled.
