Hawaii Revised Statutes Division 1. Government § 334-133

(a) Before the expiration of the period of assisted community treatment ordered by the family court, any interested party may file a petition with the family court for an order of continued assisted community treatment. The department of the attorney general shall assist with the preparation and filing of any petition brought pursuant to this section and with the presentation of the case at any related court proceedings; provided that, if the petitioner is a private provider or other private individual, the petitioner may decline the assistance. The petition shall be filed, and unless the court determines the existence of a guardian, a guardian ad litem appointed, and notice provided in the same manner as under sections 334-123 and 334-125.

(b) The family court shall appoint a guardian ad litem, unless there is an existing guardian, hold a hearing on the petition, and make its decision in the same manner as provided under sections 334-123 to 334-127. The family court may order the continued assisted community treatment for no more than two years after the date of the hearing pursuant to this section if the court finds that the criteria for assisted community treatment continue to exist and are likely to continue beyond one hundred days.

(c) Nothing in this section shall preclude the subject's stipulation to the continuance of an existing order. This section shall be in addition to the provisions on the objection to discharge.
