Try this one, scroll down it has a section on the different parts of the acts, I believe parts 2 and 3 are together. Part 3 is about who can put you in treatment and your inability to refuse treatment but it also states what you can do to challenge that. You might want to check with Bazelon Center for Mental Health Law if you have specific questions they might be able to refer you to a proper place. There is also your own state's advocacy, Disability Rights.
