(a) A voluntary client may be discharged by the
administrator at any time within twenty (20) days of receipt of
a written request for the release by the client, his parent or
guardian, and the administrator shall arrange for appropriate
transition services, except:
(i) If the client was admitted on his own application
and the request for discharge is made by a person other than the

file, he may apply for involuntary admission pursuant to W.S.
