The Board conducts hearings for persons committed to its jurisdiction. For the Board to have jurisdiction over those persons, the Board must determine if jurisdictional criteria (see OAR 859-200-0030) exist. If, at the time of the hearing, the jurisdictional criteria are not proven by a preponderance of the evidence, the person must be discharged. If jurisdictional criteria exist at the time of the hearing, the Board then makes a determination about appropriate residential placement of the person based on the record as a whole.
