(a) The court that entered an order directing a patient to participate in outpatient care or services may set a hearing to determine if the order should be modified to specifically require inpatient treatment. The court may set the hearing on its own motion, at the request of the person responsible for the care or treatment, or at the request of any other interested person.
(b) The court shall appoint an attorney to represent the patient if a hearing is held. The patient shall be given notice of the matters to be considered at the hearing. The notice must comply with the requirements of Section 462.063 for notice before a hearing on court-ordered treatment.
(c) The hearing shall be held before the court, without a jury, and as prescribed by Section 462.067. The patient shall be represented by an attorney and receive proper notice.
