[HPforGrownups] Marauder's Map fluttered out of Harry's hands AGAIN?

[Doreen]

No: HPFGUIDX 14673

The last time the map is mentioned is in Crouch's 'confession' after
drinking the Truth potion.

Has Rowling simply forgotten to mention if Harry gets it back or has
she left it unmentioned for a reason?

No, it doesn't say he gets it back, but that is such a simple thing to
correct. Dumbledore, or Hagrid, or even Snape might give it to him at the
beginning of the next term. Or, the new DADA might give it to him, knowing
somehow that it is his, and also, like Snape, not know what it is.
Therefore, it would seem harmless enough giving it back to Harry. Maybe it
is in an envelope or drawer marked, "confiscated from Harry Potter."
