becoming a person in a mental health crisis. 2. A copy of a petition filed pursuant to subsection 1 must be served upon the person
who is the subject of the petition or his or her counsel and, if applicable, his or
her legal guardian. 3. Upon receiving a petition filed pursuant to subsection 1, the court shall schedule
