For this week's discussion, explore a significant Supreme Court or state legal decision that dealt with the rights of people with mental illness, either mentioned above or found elsewhere. Many of the decisions are on line, so I would suggest that you read the full decision if possible. Summarize the decision and discuss its impact on the rights of persons with mental illness, including the strengths and weaknesses of the decision. Also cite and discuss any subsequent case law that may have overruled or otherwise affected that decision.
