JUDITH MAY, aka Masters, Rocca, Appellant. PER CURIAM Reversed and remanded. PER CURIAM Appellant, an alleged mentally ill person, appeals from a judgment of involuntary civil commitment. Because we conclude that the trial court erred in failing to advise appellant of her hearing rights, we reverse. The state concedes that the trial court failed to explain to appellant her rights under ORS 426.100(1), as required by State v. Allison, 129 Or. App. 47, 877 P.2d 660 (1994). The state contends, however, that any error was waived by counsel, who made no objection at the hearing. ORS 426.100(1) provides: "At the time the alleged mentally ill person is brought before the court, the court shall advise the person of the following: "(a) The reason for being brought before the court; "(b) The nature of the proceedings; "(c) The possible results of the proceedings; "(d) The right to subpoena witnesses; and "(e) The person's rights regarding representation by or appointment of counsel." We hold that a lawyer's failure to object, standing alone, does not constitute a waiver of the right to be advised of the rights pertaining to the conduct of a civil mental commitment hearing. Those are mandatory advisements specifically designed to ensure that the alleged mentally ill person receives the benefits of a full and fair hearing. The court must either advise the alleged mentally ill person directly regarding those rights or conduct an examination on the record to determine whether a valid waiver of the right to be advised has been knowingly and voluntarily made. Here, the court neither advised appellant nor conducted any such examination. Reversed and remanded.
