Opinion

Nos. 81-168, 81-327.

March 16, 1982.

Appeal from the Circuit Court, Dade County, Gene Williams, J., and from the Circuit Court, Dade County, Harold Featherstone, J.

Bennett Brummer, Public Defender and Barry Weinstein, Asst. Public Defender, for appellants.

Jim Smith, Atty. Gen. and Alan T. Lipson, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Before SCHWARTZ, DANIEL S. PEARSON and JORGENSON, JJ.


Finding that the phrase "competence to consent to treatment" in Section 394.467(3)(a), Florida Statutes (Supp. 1980), is not unconstitutionally vague, indefinite, uncertain or standardless so as to violate the due process clauses of the Constitutions of the United States and the State of Florida, and that no procedural due process right of either appellant was violated by the hearings conducted, we affirm the orders under review in these consolidated appeals.

Affirmed.
