proceeding

 
1.__If during the period of administrative release the
attorney for the State has probable cause to believe that the
person placed on administrative release has violated a
requirement of administrative release, the attorney for the State
may file a motion with the court seeking to revoke administrative
release and cause a summons to be delivered to the person placed
on administrative release ordering that person to appear for a
court hearing on the alleged violation.__The motion must set
forth the facts underlying the alleged violation.__The summons
must be in the same form as a summons under section 1205-B,
subsection 2 except that the summons must include the signature
of a law enforcement officer other than a probation officer.

motion to revoke administrative release pursuant to a summons
must be afforded an initial appearance as provided in section

appear in court after having been served with a summons, the
court may issue a warrant for the arrest of the person.__After
arrest of the person, the court shall afford the person a
preliminary hearing as provided in section 1205, subsection 4,
and, if retained in custody, section 1205-C, subsection 3
applies.

 
4.__If the person placed on administrative release can be
located and served a summons, the attorney for the State may not
commence the administrative release proceeding by having the
person arrested.__However, if the person can not, with due
diligence, be located, the attorney for the State shall file a
written notice of this fact with the court and obtain a warrant
of arrest under Rule 41 of the Maine Rules of Criminal Procedure.__
Unless sooner released, the court shall provide the person with
an initial appearance on the revocation of administrative release
within 14 days after arrest.__A copy of the motion must be
furnished to the person prior to or at the initial appearance.__
The initial appearance is as provided in section 1205-C,
