If the person cannot file a written request, anyone acting on the person's behalf may file the request with the person's consent. The chief officer or director of a center or the appointed designee shall discharge the person with intellectual or development disability within twelve (12) hours after receipt of the request or at the time stated in the request, whichever is later.
