Per Curiam.

[¶ 1] S.R. appealed from a district court order granting Prairie St. Johns Hospitals request to involuntarily treat S.R. with prescription medication. The district court found by clear and convincing evidence that the factors for involuntary medication of a patient under N.D.C.C. § 25-03.1-18.1 were met. On appeal, S.R. argues the district courts findings were clearly erroneous and an abuse of discretion. We conclude the district courts findings are supported by clear and convincing evidence and are not clearly erroneous. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2) and (4). [¶ 2] Gerald W.
