Matter of Didier
No. 20200217
Per Curiam.
[¶1] Lawrence Didier appeals from a district court order denying his petition for
discharge from civil commitment. Didier argues the order denying his discharge
from civil commitment was not supported by clear and convincing evidence he
remains a sexually dangerous individual. Under our modified clearly erroneous
standard of review, we conclude the district court’s findings of fact and order are
supported by clear and convincing evidence. We summarily affirm under
N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
