12-52-03. Recommitment to the youth correctional center for violation of aftercare

rules.

A person placed in an aftercare program must be under the guardianship and control of the

director of the division of juvenile services and is subject, at any time until the expiration of the

time for which the person was committed, to be taken into actual custody and returned to the

North Dakota youth correctional center. The director may enforce the rules and regulations

made for the administration of aftercare programs and the placement of students in them, and

when the director is satisfied that a person placed in an aftercare program has violated any of

the rules or regulations, the director may order that person to be taken into actual custody and

returned to the North Dakota youth correctional center and to be detained therein until the

expiration of the time for which the person was committed, or until the person is again placed in

an aftercare program. The director shall maintain a record of any such order, and a certified

copy of the order may be delivered to any peace officer, or any officer or employee of the North

Dakota youth correctional center, for service and return. It is the duty of the officer or employee

to receive the order and to apprehend and immediately deliver the person named in the order to

the superintendent of the North Dakota youth correctional center.
