PER CURIAM

Reversed.

PER CURIAM

Appellant seeks reversal of a judgment of involuntary commitment that was based on a finding that, because of a mental disorder, she is dangerous to herself. ORS 426.005(1)(d)(A). She argues that the state failed to demonstrate, by clear and convincing evidence, that she is dangerous to herself. The state concedes that the record does not contain evidence sufficient to support a finding that appellant is dangerous to herself. We accept the state's concession.

Reversed.
