District of Columbia Court of Appeals July 31, 2014, No. 13-FM-28 (In re Edmonds)

BLACKBURNE-RIGSBY, Associate Judge:

In this case, we are asked to decide an issue of first impression: whether “ex-tendfing] the period of commitment pending resolution” of a petition to renew that commitment under D.C.Code § 21-545.01(f) (2004 Supp.) bears any role on the renewal petition for recommitment.
