If a person is Commonlaw in the Sate Of Texas can they be committed for phsyciatric evaluation by the other party ? :confused:
I am a concerned realative.

You can not commit anybody against their will you would have to prove they were a danger to themselves or others and/or mentally incompetent. IF you do manage to get them committed they would very likely be released within 48 to 72 hours.

In 1975, the United States Supreme Court ruled that involuntary hospitalization and/or treatment violates an individual's civil rights. This ruling forced individual states to change their statutes. For example, the individual must be exhibiting behavior that is a danger to himself or others in order to be held, the hold must be for evaluation only and a court order must be received for more than very short term treatment or hospitalization (typically no longer than 72 hours). This ruling has severely limited involuntary treatment and hospitalization in the United States.[3] In the United States the specifics of the relevant statutes vary from state to state.[4]
