824. Any application made by the person who, having given general consent to adoption and having omitted to withdraw it within the prescribed time, wishes the child to be returned to him, must be served on the director of youth protection. The latter must give notice of the application to the person having or exercising parental authority, to the father or mother if they no longer have parental authority and, if such is the case, to the tutor.
In the case of special consent to adoption, the application for the return of a child is served on the person to whom the child was entrusted.
