The 28-year-old actress was due to leave on Monday, but according to TMZ, her doctors asked for and were granted by a judge a 30-day extension. They told a judge that Bynes is “very ill” and isn’t healthy enough to take care of herself at this time.

Bynes was placed on an involuntary psychiatric hold more than two weeks ago, after making claims on Twitter — which she later recanted — that her father had abused her.

She was previously placed on an involuntary psychiatric hold in July of 2013.
