   Sec. 5. If a board of commissioners finds that the individual sought to be admitted into the county home or other charitable institution should not, for any cause, be admitted, the individual denied admission, or the township trustee as the administrator of township assistance, may appeal from the decision of the board of commissioners of the county to the circuit court, superior court, or probate court of the county by filing a transcript of the record before the board of commissioners with the clerk of the circuit court, superior court, or probate court of the county, who shall immediately notify the circuit court, superior court, or probate court. The court shall, as soon as possible, proceed to hear and determine the matter. The court may order the board of commissioners to accept the individual in the county home or other charitable institution on the terms and conditions, within the lawfully established rate as provided in section 8 of this chapter, as the court orders.
