Interest of Jane Doe

No. 20170398

Per Curiam.

[¶1] Jane Doe appeals from the district court’s order entered on November 2, 2017, for continuing treatment at the North Dakota State Hospital for a period not to exceed one year.  Doe argues the district court erred in finding her mentally ill and a person requiring treatment.  We conclude the court’s findings are supported by clear and convincing evidence and are not clearly erroneous. We affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
