Upon receipt of a certificate of eligibility and available facilities, the Oregon Health Authority may cause to be transferred any veteran from any facility to which the veteran has been assigned to a United States veterans facility. No veteran under sentence by any court, or committed by any court after having been charged with any crime and found guilty except for insanity, may be transferred without an order of such court authorizing the transfer. Whenever any veteran, not a convict, has been committed by order of a court and is transferred as provided in this section, the order of commitment shall be held to apply to the facility to which the veteran is transferred as to any other facility to which the veteran could be assigned or transferred under ORS 426.060. [Amended by 1975 c.690 §27; 2009 c.595 §239; 2017 c.634 §18]
