HRS §334-129
What happens if you don't follow your assisted community treatment order
This section explains what happens if someone does not follow a court-ordered assisted community treatment plan. A doctor can give court-authorized medication, even over the person's objection, during emergency or hospital care. The provider must try to get compliance, and if that fails, the person may be transported to a facility, but refusing treatment alone cannot force hospitalization.
