Questão jurídica principal
Whether the civil commitment under former Art. 397a ZGB was justified on the basis of the evidence and expert reports.
Decisão extraída
The findings on concrete and immediate danger, treatment insight, and the necessity of inpatient treatment were incomplete; the appellate judgment had to be set aside and the case remitted for further fact-finding and a new decision.
Fundamentação extraída
In alcoholism cases, an expert report must address the health condition, concrete danger to self or others, possible deterioration if treatment is omitted, the need for inpatient treatment, treatment insight, and the suitability of the institution. The reports here only described an abstract risk of fatal intoxication and did not sufficiently establish immediate danger or treatment insight.
