Involuntary Services

For almost all cases, the Petition and Request for Assessment and Stabilization is followed by the filing of a Services Petition. This is because the Petition and Request for Assessment and Stabilization is not enough to see long term results from the respondent. An Involuntary Services Petition seeks the respondent ordered to long term treatment.
