“(1) Upon application by the committed or conditionally released person, the secretary shall determine whether or not reasonable grounds exist for final discharge. If the secretary approves the final discharge he or she then shall authorize said person to petition the court. (3) Nothing contained in this chapter shall prohibit the patient from petitioning the court for final discharge or conditional release from the institution in which he or she is committed. The issue to be determined on such proceeding is whether the petitioner is a substantial danger to other persons, or presents a substantial likelihood of committing felonious acts jeopardizing public safety or security, unless kept under further control by the court or other persons or institutions.”

There can be substantial evidence to both prove and disprove a point. The evidence must be weighed to ascertain which preponderates whenever a burden of persuasion requires the preponderance of evidence test.”
