I thought you meant just random people could be court ordered to stay on meds. We had a member here once that made an attempt and they were ordered to stay in there county, had to be on meds that blood test could prove they were being taken because they made an attempt.. I never understood that... like it’s a persons right to punch there ticket if they really want to .... isn’t it ??!!
Yeah, I agree with you. Patients ought to have a big say in whether they take meds or not. We have a quite busy Med Court system in this state and patients win their cases there all the time, I am happy to report. Not really sure how it works in other states.
