June 1886 CE
A panel of four psychiatrists sign the finalized Medical Report on Kudwig II's mental state in early June: Dr. Bernhard von Gudden, chief of the Munich Asylum; Dr. Hubert von Grashey (who is Gudden's son-in-law); and their colleagues, a Dr. Hagen and a Dr. Hubrich.
The report declares in its final sentences that the king suffers from paranoia, and concludes, "Suffering from such a disorder, freedom of action can no longer be allowed and Your Majesty is declared incapable of ruling, which incapacity will be not only for a year's duration, but for the length of Your Majesty's life."
The men had never met the king except Gudden, once, twelve years earlier, nor examined him.
