Swiss Civil Code

¹ The per­son con­cerned or a closely re­lated per­son may sub­mit a writ­ten re­quest at any time for the adult pro­tec­tion au­thor­ity at the loc­a­tion of the in­sti­tu­tion to in­ter­vene in re­la­tion to a meas­ure re­strict­ing free­dom of move­ment.

² If the adult pro­tec­tion au­thor­ity es­tab­lishes that the meas­ure fails to meet the stat­utory re­quire­ments, it shall amend the meas­ure, re­voke it or or­der an of­fi­cial adult pro­tec­tion meas­ure. If ne­ces­sary, it shall no­ti­fy the in­sti­tu­tion's su­per­vis­ory au­thor­ity.

³ Any re­quest for an as­sess­ment to be made by the adult pro­tec­tion au­thor­ity shall be passed on to the au­thor­ity im­me­di­ately.
