Hospitalization of Persons Suffering with Mental Disabilities Unspecified in Order: Problems of Regulatory Legal Regulation

Abstract

The article discusses the main problems of regulatory regulation of the procedure for hospitalization of persons suffering from mental disorders in an involuntary manner. The paper presents statistics confirming the relevance of the study, as well as some examples from judicial practice, indicating the presence of these problems in law enforcement. Special attention is paid to the problems of police powers in the process of involuntary hospitalization and the judiciary. It was deemed necessary to conduct a detailed analysis of acts regulating the procedure of involuntary hospitalization of a person suffering from mental illness, and also suggested that the regulatory regulation of this procedure should be brought to a consensus between a number of regulatory acts of various levels, i.e., to create uniform rules for the implementation of involuntary hospitalization of persons suffering from mental illness diseases that would clearly define the powers of all subjects of the procedure.
