{{Case
|Date=1999-06-21
|NCN=[1999] EWHC Admin 577
|MHLR=[1999] MHLR 128
|Court=High Court (Administrative Court)
|Judges=Sedley, Collins
|Parties=GK, Kinsey, North Mersey Community NHS Trust
|Sentence=NR discharge
|Summary=The nearest relative gave a discharge notice to the hospital receptionist, who put it in the MHA Administrator's pigeon hole; it was received by the administrator, on his return from work, more than 72 hours later. The High Court decided that the order was not served by "delivery of the order or notice at that hospital to an officer of the managers authorised by them to receive it" (as required by the regulations) until the MHA Administrator received it; therefore, the subsequent barring order was effective.
