Interest of M.T.

No. 20150089

Per Curiam.

[¶1] M.T. appeals from a district court order for involuntary treatment with medication.  M.T. argues the district court’s order is clearly erroneous because clear and convincing evidence does not support finding the medication is clinically appropriate and the least restrictive means of treatment.  Because the district court’s findings are not clearly erroneous, we summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
