PER CURIAM

Appellant seeks reversal of a judgment committing her for a period not to exceed 180 days. ORS 426.130. She contends that the trial court erred in concluding that, as a result of a mental disorder, she is a danger to herself. See ORS 426.005(1)(e). The state concedes that the record does not contain legally sufficient evidence to support the involuntary commitment and that the trial court's judgment should be reversed. We agree, and accept the state's concession.

Reversed.
