[QUOTE="deleted member, post: 324631, member: 816"] in north dakota we have some pretty decent systems in place that prevent you from being labeled crazy and affecting your firearms rights. you need to be assessed by a professional who decides you need to be court committed. if you go on your own, that generally avoids the court process and firearms restrictions. you are assigned an attorney. you entitled to a hearing where the judge makes the ultimate decision. if the case is dismissed before the end of the preliminary stage (14 days) despite an initial report of exam labeling you "crazy" (not the legal term), the firearm restriction doesn't apply. assuming there is an ultimate finding of "crazy" at an actual treatment hearing or after a waiver (admitting you are crazy), i believe the restriction automatically goes away 1 year after the termination of the order. most of ours are 90 days unless extended by the court. so, we are looking at a roughly 1 year and 90+ day firearm restriction for the first time official crazies... short answer is someone can't just call you "crazy" and affect your firearms rights. not yet in ND anyway.
