Description

APPEAL from an order of the circuit court for Milwaukee County: VICTOR MANIAN, Judge. Affirmed. 1. Edward S. appeals from an order denying his post-commitment motion for relief. He claims that the circuit court lost competency to commit him because the final commitment hearing was not held within fourteen days after his initial detention in violation of WIS. STAT. § 51.20(7)(c) (1999-2000).1 The issue in this appeal is whether the fourteen-day deadline for a final hearing in an involuntary commitment proceeding pursuant to § 51.20(7)(c) may be extended when the subject of the commitment creates the need for an extension. Because State ex rel. Lockman v. Gerhardstein, 107 Wis. 2d 325, 320 N.W.2d 27 (Ct. App. 1982) is distinguishable from this case and the doctrine of judicial estoppel is applicable, we affirm.
