Key legal question
Whether the appellant's protective placement under Art. 426 CC remained justified.
Extracted holding
Yes. The court found persistent psychotic delusions, a need for treatment and protection, and that the necessary assistance could not be provided otherwise than in an institution.
Extracted reasoning
Although some factual findings were imperfect, the record and the appellant's own statements sufficiently established a serious psychiatric disorder, self-neglect, repeated dangerous flight, and refusal of treatment.
