Previous 
*   634.  Conduct of inmates participating in furlough program. 1. An
  inmate who is permitted to leave  the  premises  of  an  institution  to
  participate in a furlough program shall have on his person a copy of the
  memorandum  of  that  program as signed by the warden of the institution
  and shall exhibit such copy to any peace officer or police officer  upon
  request of such officer.

2.  If  the inmate violates any provision of the program, or any rule,
  or regulation promulgated by the commissioner  for  conduct  of  inmates
  participating  in furlough programs, he shall be subject to disciplinary
  measures to the same extent as if he violated a rule  or  regulation  of
  the  commissioner  for  conduct  of  inmates  within the premises of the
  institution.

3. The provisions of this section relating to good behavior of inmates
  while  participating  in  furlough  programs  outside  the  premises  of
  institutions, and such allowances may be granted, withheld, forfeited or
  cancelled  in  whole  or  part  for  behavior outside the premises of an
  institution to the same extent and in the same manner as is provided for
  behavior of inmates within the premises of the institutions.

4. An inmate who is in violation of the  provisions  of  his  furlough
  program may be taken into custody by any peace officer or police officer
  and,  in  such  event  the  inmate  shall  be  returned forthwith to the
  institution that released him. In any case where the institution is in a
  county other than the one  in  which  the  inmate  is  apprehended,  the
  officer  may  deliver  the  inmate  to  the nearest institution, jail or
  lockup and it shall be the duty of the person in charge of said facility
  to hold such inmate securely until such time as he is delivered into the
  custody of an officer of the institution from  which  he  was  released.
  Upon delivering the inmate to an institution, jail or lockup, other than
  the  one  from  which  he  was released, the officer who apprehended the
  inmate shall forthwith notify the warden of the institution  from  which
  the inmate was released and it shall be the duty of the warden to effect
  the expeditious return of the inmate to the institution.
