§ 12-30-4-5 — Denial of admission; appeals

If a board of commissioners finds that the
individual sought to be admitted into the county home or other
charitable institution should not, for any cause, be admitted, the
individual denied admission, or the township trustee as the
administrator of township assistance, may appeal from the decision of
the board of commissioners of the county to the circuit court, superior
court, or probate court of the county by filing a transcript of the record
before the board of commissioners with the clerk of the circuit court,
superior court, or probate court of the county, who shall immediately
notify the circuit court, superior court, or probate court. The court shall,
as soon as possible, proceed to hear and determine the matter. The
court may order the board of commissioners to accept the individual in
the county home or other charitable institution on the terms and
conditions, within the lawfully established rate as provided in section
8 of this chapter, as the court orders.
