252.8 SCOPE OF ORDER. The order may be for the entire or partial support of the applicant, may be for the payment of money or the taking of the applicant to a relative's house, or may assign the applicant for a certain time to one and for another period to another, as is just and right, taking into view the means of the several relatives liable, but no such assignment shall be made to one who is willing to pay the amount necessary for support. If the order is for assistance in any other form than money, it shall state the extent and value of the assistance per week, and the time assistance shall continue; or the order may make the time of continuance indefinite, and it may be varied from time to time by a new order, as circumstances require, upon application to the court by the trustees, the poor person, or the relative affected, ten days' notice being given to the party or parties concerned.          Section History: Early Form [C51, § 793--795; R60, § 1361--1363; C73, § 1337--1339; C97, § 2219; C24, 27, 31, 35, § 5304; C39, § 3828.080; C46, 50, 54, 58, 62, 66, 71, 73, 75, 77, 79, 81, § 252.8]          Section History: Recent Form 92 Acts, ch 1212, § 10
