In the case referred to by seeker_4, the wife was a prohibited person, and it appears that the husband did not secure his guns against access by the wife, so the husband arguably allowed his guns to be available to a prohibited person (a federal crime).

Frank, from what I understand about this situation, there are some big questions.
Reportedly, the woman admitted herself voluntarily to address her medications. There was no court order- for temporary observation, or anything else. It was not involuntary. She was also released after 48 hours- a rather brief time. Court-ordered observations are usually somewhat longer, I believe.
There was no court process of adjudication. She was not committed.
Therefore, did the woman actually meet the requirements for disqualification? It does not appear so on the information provided- which, as is usually the case, may not be complete.
