Answer to #4

Civil commitment is a state-initiated procedure that forces involuntary treatment on people who are judged to have a mental illness who present a danger to themselves (including an inability to care for themselves) or others and who refuse to participate in treatment voluntarily.
During the early twentieth century, civil commitment usually meant inpatient hospitalization, and sometimes it still does.
Criminal commitment is a court-ordered procedure that forces involuntary treatment on a person with a psychological disorder who commits a crime. Within the courtroom, those who are criminally committed may be judged not guilty by reason of insanity, guilty but mentally ill, or incompetent to stand trial.
