§ 778. Failure to comply with terms of placement in authorized agency.

If a person is placed in the custody of a suitable institution in accord

with section seven hundred fifty-six and leaves the institution without

permission of the superintendent or person in charge and without

permission of the court, and if, after hearing, the court is satisfied

by competent proof that the respondent left the institution without just

cause, the court may revoke the order of placement and proceed to make

any order that might have been made at the time the order of placement

was made, or any order authorized under section seven hundred fifty-six.
