PER CURIAM

Appellant seeks reversal of a final order committing him to the Mental Health Division. The order is based on findings that there is clear and convincing evidence that appellant suffers from a mental disorder and is dangerous to himself and is unable to provide for his basic personal needs. On appeal, he argues, among other things, that the record does not support those findings. The state concedes the point. We accept the concession.

Reversed.
