Commitment Record Not Expunged (Pa. Super. NP)

It was not an abuse of discretion for the Orphans’ Court to refuse to expunge the petitioner’s record of involuntary commitment, and restore his right to possess firearms, despite testimony in support of the petition from the petitioner’s family and a psychologist, when the petition was filed only seven months after the commitment and the petitioner’s current treatment plan was intended to address possible anxieties and rule out a diagnosis of bipolar disorder. Z.C. v. Allegheny Co. Dept. of Behavioral Health, 1597 WDA 2025 (Pa. Super. 7/15/2026) (non-precedential).
