When the RMO opposes the nearest relative's request for the patient's discharge he does so by certifying that the patient, if discharged, would be likely to act in a manner dangerous to himself or others. This certificate (usually done on a standard form) is the barring order. This is the only objection to discharge which the RMO can rely upon to bar the discharge.
