![Steven Davis' sojourn on Los Angeles' skid row last year was brief but unusually fruitful. Davis, a 32-year-old schizophrenic, was <a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-homeless-dumping9-2009apr09%2C0%2C5952498.story">dumped </a> in front of the New Image Shelter last year by College Hospital in Costa Mesa, not long after being diagnosed as dangerously delusional and paranoid. He made his way eventually to California Hospital Medical Center, which tracked down his relatives in the area. The medical center then found a place for him in a "board and care" facility equipped to support the mentally ill. Davis' experience prompted a yearlong investigation by the city attorney's office, which culminated Wednesday in a <a href="http://www.lacity.org/atty/attyfilings/attyattyfilings265759321_04082009.pdf">court order </a> that should deter hospitals from tossing others like him onto the streets. Just as important, the order could help hospitals manage the challenges that homeless patients with mental illnesses present.](http://www.latimes.com/media/thumbnails/story/2011-08/46105149-14091405.jpg "Steven Davis' sojourn on Los Angeles' skid row last year was brief but unusually fruitful.
