§ 1059. Leaving compulsory medical management
A person who is managed by order of the court shall not leave the place of compulsory
medical management without the permission in writing of the court or the Commissioner
of Health. That permission may constitute a final discharge or be for a specified
period of time. In either case the Commissioner of Health may impose such conditions
as the Commissioner considers reasonable, including requirements for periodic examinations.
Any person so managed who leaves the place of management without permission, or who
fails to return to the place of management within the time prescribed, may be returned
to the place of management without further court order and the Commissioner of Health
may direct any officer specified in section 1058 of this title, in writing, to apprehend the person and immediately return the person to the place
of management.
