Key legal question
Whether the appellant still had standing to challenge the involuntary confinement after his release
Extracted holding
No. After release, there was no legally protected interest in challenging the confinement itself, and the requirements for dispensing with a current practical interest were not met.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 76(1)(b) BGG, an appellant must have a legally protected interest. Once the measure has ended, the appeal against the measure itself is generally moot unless exceptional circumstances justify review; none were shown.
