Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the request for a declaration of unlawfulness of the involuntary commitment was admissible
Decisione estratta
The declaratory request was inadmissible because the appellant did not show why a declaratory remedy was needed in addition to her substantive requests.
Motivazione estratta
A declaratory interest exists only where it cannot be protected equally well by a performance or shaping claim; that was not substantiated here.
