5under the rules of the department. The department of health and family services
6shall submit a statement showing probable cause of the detention and a petition to
7revoke the order for conditional release to the committing court and the regional

14has the burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence that any rule or condition
15of release has been violated, or that the safety of the person or others requires that
16conditional release be revoked. If the court determines after hearing that any rule
17or condition of release has been violated, or that the safety of the person or others
18requires that conditional release be revoked, it may revoke the order for conditional
19release and order that the released person be placed in an appropriate institution
20under s. 51.37 (3) until the expiration of the commitment or until again conditionally
21released under this section.
