Here's what happens in New Hampshire; maybe look online for your state's procedure (NHH is the hospital; if your discharge conditions aren't met, you're sent back; Do not pass "Go" do not collect $200)?
Quote:
Forms are filled out by community mental health center clinical staff (i.e. case managers) in consultation with outpatient treating psychiatrists explaining the specific conditions that the individual did not follow and are sent to NHH with the individual. There is no court hearing (either district or probate) held when the individual returns. Individuals can contest being sent back to NHH, but such hearings are not heard by a judge but held in front of a Department of Health and Human Services hearings officer who works for the Office of Operation Support.

I'd contact your state's Department of Mental Health and see if you could get more info? Could be just contacting them, now, and trying to solve any "problem" will be enough to not cause you dire consequences?
