THE COURT:

It is ordered that the opinion filed herein on April 5, 2000, be modified as follows:

"It ordered that Peters be committed for treatment at Atascadero State Hospital."

2. On page 2, at the end of the second full paragraph [ 79 Cal. App. 4th 847, advance report, end of 3d full par.], add the following sentence:

"DMH discarded Dr. Jackson's report without informing Peters."

3. On page six, at the end of the third full paragraph [ 79 Cal. App. 4th 851, advance report, end of 1st full par.], add the following sentence:

"The people also contend that Dr. Jackson had not been trained to perform recommitment evaluations."

Petitioner's request for an award of costs is denied.

There is no change in judgment.

FN *. This modification requires an editorial change in the first paragraph of the summary and headnote (3) of the advance report. In the bound volume report, the word "recommit" will be changed to "commit" in the first line of the summary, page 845, and the third line of headnote (3), page 846.
