I thought (in addition to the doctors signature) that only a Judge could actually commit a person; not another employee of the nursing home. In order for a relative to take over his estate, they needed 2 signatures. His doctor signed the other day and alledgedly the staff psychiatrist did this last night. But is this legal that he was committed by those other than a judge?
