Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the constitutional complaint was admissible against the alleged violation of personal liberty and protection against deprivation of liberty in the involuntary commitment context.
Decisione estratta
The complaint was inadmissible insofar as it relied on personal liberty, Art. 31 BV and Art. 5 ECHR, because the grievance concerned the rules on involuntary commitment, which had to be raised by appeal; no sufficiently substantiated independent constitutional violation was shown.
Motivazione estratta
The alleged breach primarily concerned Art. 397a ff. ZGB. The applicant did not substantiate arbitrary violation of cantonal procedural rules and did not claim that the constitutional and Convention guarantees afforded broader protection than the civil-law rules.
