290 State v. C. S.

LAGESEN, C. J.

Appellant seeks reversal of a judgment commit- ting her to the custody of the Oregon Health Authority for a period not to exceed 180 days and prohibiting the purchase or possession of firearms. Appointed counsel filed a brief pursuant to ORAP 5.90(4) and State v. Balfour, 311 Or 434, 814 P2d 1069 (1991). The brief does not contain a Section B.

See ORAP 5.90(1)(b). We affirm.

The trial court entered that judgment after finding that appellant suffered from a mental disorder. The trial court found that her disorder caused her to be a danger to herself, specifically, that following recent suicide attempts, her persistent delusions and reports of suicidal plans cre- ated a high risk that she would make another attempt if she were not committed for inpatient treatment. See ORS 426.005(1)(f)(A) (2023) amended by Or Laws 2025, ch 559, § 4 (defining person with a mental illness as a person who, because of a mental disorder, is dangerous to self or others).

Having reviewed the record, including the trial court file, the transcript of the civil commitment hearing, and the Balfour brief, we have identified no arguably meri- torious issues.

Affirmed.
