* 1999 - [[Kendra's Law]], effective since November 1999, is a [[New York State]] law concerning [[involuntary outpatient commitment]]. It grants judges the authority to issue orders that require people who meet certain criteria to regularly undergo psychiatric treatment. Failure to comply could result in commitment for up to 72 hours. Kendra's Law does not require that patients are forced to take medication.
