This slip opinion is subject to revision and may not reflect the final opinion adopted by the Court. Opinion Missouri Court of Appeals Western District Case Style: Jerry McKee, Appellant, v. State of Missouri, Respondent. Case Number: 54061 Handdown Date: 04/28/1998 Appeal From: Circuit Court of Callaway County, Hon. Patrick A. Horner Counsel for Appellant: Margaret M. Johnston Counsel for Respondent: Loren T. Israel Opinion Summary: None Citation: Opinion Author: PER CURIAM Opinion Vote: AFFIRMED. Stith, P.J., Hanna and Riederer, J.J., concur. Opinion: ORDER Jerry McKee appeals the trial court's dismissal of his petition for conditional release from Fulton State Hospital. He argues that the trial court erred in finding that he was required to bring his petition through his appointed guardian because the statute governing conditional release allows only the committed person or the head of the facility where the person is committed to file such a petition. We disagree. Because a published opinion would have no precedential value, we affirm by this summary order but have supplied the parties with a memorandum setting forth our reasoning. Rule 84.16(b). Separate Opinion: None This slip opinion is subject to revision and may not reflect the final opinion adopted by the Court.
