Editor's note: (1) This section is similar to former § 26-22-103 as it existed prior to 2010.
This section was numbered as § 26-22-103 in Senate Bill 10-014 (see L. 2010, p.214) but was relocated due to its harmonization with this section as it was added by Senate Bill 10-175; except that the change from division of mental health to division of behavioral health in Senate Bill 10-014 was superseded by Senate Bill 10-175 and is currently referred to as the unit.
Amendments to this section by House Bill 11-1193 and House Bill 11-1303 wereharmonized.
