§43A-7-111.
   
   The certificate of competency executed by the superintendent shall be
   conclusive evidence of restoration to legal competence. The
   certificate filed with the district court clerk in the original
   proceedings shall in and of itself constitute a restoration of
   competency. No action by the person named on the certificate is
   required. Such person will be notified of his restoration and
   furnished a copy of the document of restoration to legal competency.
   If such person shall have been discharged from an institution within
   the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services prior to
   the date the laws of this state required execution of such
   certificate, then said person may be restored to legal competency
   without such certificate, and evidence of the discharge of such person
   shall be prima facie evidence upon which the district court may,
   without additional evidence, enter an order restoring such person to
   legal competency for all matters, and no further action, in court or
   otherwise, shall be necessary for such restoration.
