    Mmmm i believe a court order was issued while i was in the ER. I vaguely remember seeing it and verifying that i was considered involuntary while in the institution

      In that case you may just have to get a brace of black powder pistols and start buccaneer-moding. You don't choose the pirate's life. The pirate's life chooses you.

      From the ER they can put you on a short hold without court approval, and they don't need to start it until you're medically stable.

      The kind that disqualifies you is something you'd remember. You're given a chance to testify.

          Probably the easiest is asking for the medical records for that period from the hospital. You can usually get them for free if it's a limited request, but you'll probably have to go in person.

          The second option is going to the clerk at the courthouse that serves that hospital and have them search for a committal record. They might charge you for a copy of the record, but it's usually cheap.
