Sec. 103. Section 7, chapter 115, Laws of 1983 as last amended by section 12, chapter 153, Laws of 1988 and by section 3, chapter 157, Laws of 1988 and RCW 9.94A.360 are each reenacted and amended to read as follows:
The offender score is measured on the horizontal axis of the sentencing grid. The offender score rules are as follows:
The offender score is the sum of points accrued under this section rounded down to the nearest whole number.
(1) A prior conviction is a conviction which exists before the date of sentencing for the offense for which the offender score is being computed. Convictions entered or sentenced on the same date as the conviction for which the offender score is being computed shall be deemed "other current offenses" within the meaning of RCW 9.94A.400.
(2) Except as provided in subsection (4) of this section, class A prior felony convictions shall always be included in the offender score. Class B prior felony convictions shall not be included in the offender score, if since the last date of release from confinement (including full-time residential treatment) pursuant to a felony conviction, if any, or entry of judgment and sentence, the offender had spent ten consecutive years in the community without being convicted of any felonies. Class C prior felony convictions shall not be included in the offender score if, since the last date of release from confinement (including full-time residential treatment) pursuant to a felony conviction, if any, or entry of judgment and sentence, the offender had spent five consecutive years in the community without being convicted of any felonies. Serious traffic convictions shall not be included in the offender score if, since the last date of release from confinement (including full-time residential treatment) pursuant to a felony conviction, if any, or entry of judgment and sentence, the offender spent five years in the community without being convicted of any serious traffic or felony traffic offenses. This subsection applies to both adult and juvenile prior convictions.
(3) Out-of-state convictions for offenses shall be classified according to the comparable offense definitions and sentences provided by Washington law.
(4) Include class A juvenile felonies only if the offender was 15 or older at the time the juvenile offense was committed. Include class B and C juvenile felony convictions only if the offender was 15 or older at the time the juvenile offense was committed and the offender was less than 23 at the time the offense for which he or she is being sentenced was committed.
(5) Score prior convictions for felony anticipatory offenses (attempts, criminal solicitations, and criminal conspiracies) the same as if they were convictions for completed offenses.
(6) In the case of multiple prior convictions, for the purpose of computing the offender score, count all convictions separately, except:
(a) Prior adult offenses which were found, under RCW 9.94A.400(1)(a), to encompass the same criminal conduct, shall be counted as one offense, the offense that yields the highest offender score.

PART II
PREVENTION, INVESTIGATION, AND PROCEDURE
SUBPART A
ONE-PARTY CONSENT
NEW SECTION. Sec. 201. A new section is added to chapter 9.73 RCW to read as follows:
The legislature finds that the unlawful manufacturing, selling, and distributing of controlled substances is becoming increasingly prevalent and violent. Attempts by law enforcement officers to prevent the manufacture, sale, and distribution of drugs is resulting in numerous life-threatening situations since drug dealers are using sophisticated weapons and modern technological devices to deter the efforts of law enforcement officials to enforce the controlled substance statutes. Dealers of unlawful drugs are employing a wide variety of violent methods to realize the enormous profits of the drug trade.
Therefore, the legislature finds that conversations regarding illegal drug operations should be intercepted and transmitted in certain circumstances without prior judicial approval in order to protect the life and safety of law enforcement personnel and to enhance prosecution of drug offenses, and that that interception and transmission can be done without violating the constitutional guarantees of privacy.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 202. A new section is added to chapter 9.73 RCW to read as follows:

(2) Before any interception or transmission of a private conversation or communication pursuant to this section, the police commander or officer making the determination required by subsection (1) of this section shall complete a written authorization which shall include (a) the date and time the authorization is given; (b) the persons, including the consenting party, expected to participate in the conversation, to the extent known; (c) the expected date, location, and approximate time of the conversation; and (d) the reasons for believing the consenting party's safety will be in danger.
(3) A monthly report shall be filed by the law enforcement agency with the administrator for the courts indicating the number of authorizations made under this section, the date and time of each authorization, and whether an interception or transmission was made with respect to each authorization.
(4) Any information obtained pursuant to this section is inadmissible in any civil or criminal case in all courts of general or limited jurisdiction in this state, except:
(a) With the permission of the person whose communication or conversation was intercepted or transmitted without his or her knowledge;
(b) In a civil action for personal injury or wrongful death arising out of the same incident, where the cause of action is based upon an act of physical violence against the consenting party; or

SUBPART B
PROPERTY FORFEITURE
NEW SECTION. Sec. 210. The legislature finds that: Drug offenses and crimes resulting from illegal drug use are destructive to society; the nature of drug trafficking results in many property crimes and crimes of violence; state and local governmental agencies incur immense expenses in the investigation, prosecution, adjudication, incarceration, and treatment of drug-related offenders and the compensation of their victims; drug-related offenses are difficult to eradicate because of the profits derived from the criminal activities, which can be invested in legitimate assets and later used for further criminal activities; and the forfeiture of real assets where a substantial nexus exists between the commercial production or sale of the substances and the real property will provide a significant deterrent to crime by removing the profit incentive of drug trafficking, and will provide a revenue source that will partially defray the large costs incurred by government as a result of these crimes. The legislature recognizes that seizure of real property is a very powerful tool and should not be applied in cases in which a manifest injustice would occur as a result of forfeiture of an innocent spouse's community property interest.
Sec. 211. Section 15, chapter 2, Laws of 1983 as last amended by section 2, chapter 282, Laws of 1988 and RCW 69.50.505 are each amended to read as follows:

(1) All controlled
substances which have been manufactured, distributed, dispensed, ((or))
acquired, or possessed in violation of this chapter or chapter 69.41
or 69.52 RCW;
(2) All raw materials, products, and equipment of any kind which are used, or intended for use, in manufacturing, compounding, processing, delivering, importing, or exporting any controlled substance in violation of this chapter or chapter 69.41 or 69.52 RCW;
(3) All property which is used, or intended for use, as a container for property described in paragraphs (1) or (2);
(4) All
conveyances, including aircraft, vehicles, or vessels, which are used, or
intended for use, in any manner to facilitate the sale of property described in
paragraphs (1) or (2), ((but)) except that:
(i) No conveyance used by any person as a common carrier in the transaction of business as a common carrier is subject to forfeiture under this section unless it appears that the owner or other person in charge of the conveyance is a consenting party or privy to a violation of this chapter or chapter 69.41 or 69.52 RCW;
(ii) No
conveyance is subject to forfeiture under this section by reason of any act or
omission established by the owner thereof to have been committed or omitted
without ((his)) the owner's knowledge or consent;
(iii) A forfeiture of a conveyance encumbered by a bona fide security interest is subject to the interest of the secured party if the secured party neither had knowledge of nor consented to the act or omission; and
(iv) When the owner of a conveyance has been arrested under this chapter or chapter 69.41 or 69.52 RCW the conveyance in which the person is arrested may not be subject to forfeiture unless it is seized or process is issued for its seizure within ten days of the owner's arrest;
(5) All books, records, and research products and materials, including formulas, microfilm, tapes, and data which are used, or intended for use, in violation of this chapter or chapter 69.41 or 69.52 RCW;

(7) All
moneys, negotiable instruments, securities, or other tangible or
intangible property of value furnished or intended to be furnished by any
person in exchange for a controlled substance in violation of this chapter or
chapter 69.41 or 69.52 RCW, all tangible or intangible personal
property, proceeds, or assets acquired in whole or in part with proceeds
traceable to ((such)) an exchange or series of exchanges in violation
of this chapter or chapter 69.41 or 69.52 RCW, and all moneys, negotiable
instruments, and securities used or intended to be used to facilitate any
violation of this chapter or chapter 69.41 or 69.52 RCW: PROVIDED, That
no personal property may be forfeited under this paragraph, to the
extent of the interest of an owner, by reason of any act or omission which that
owner establishes was committed or omitted without the owner's knowledge or
consent; and
(8) All real property, including any right, title, and interest in the whole of any lot or tract of land, and any appurtenances or improvements which are being used with the knowledge of the owner for the manufacturing, compounding, processing, delivery, importing, or exporting of any controlled substance, or which have been acquired in whole or in part with proceeds traceable to an exchange or series of exchanges in violation of this chapter or chapter 69.41 or 69.52 RCW, if such activity is not less than a class C felony and a substantial nexus exists between the commercial production or sale of the controlled substance and the real property: PROVIDED, That
(i) No property may be forfeited pursuant to this subsection, to the extent of the interest of an owner, by reason of any act or omission committed or omitted without the owner's knowledge or consent;
(ii) The bona fide gift of a controlled substance, legend drug, or imitation controlled substance shall not result in the forfeiture of real property;
(iii) The possession of marijuana shall not result in the forfeiture of real property unless the marijuana is possessed for commercial purposes, the amount possessed is five or more plants or one pound or more of marijuana, and a substantial nexus exists between the possession of marijuana and the real property. In such a case, the intent of the offender shall be determined by the preponderance of the evidence, including the offender's prior criminal history, the amount of marijuana possessed by the offender, the sophistication of the activity or equipment used by the offender, and other evidence which demonstrates the offender's intent to engage in commercial activity;
(iv) The unlawful sale of marijuana or a legend drug shall not result in the forfeiture of real property unless the sale was forty grams or more in the case of marijuana or one hundred dollars or more in the case of a legend drug, and a substantial nexus exists between the unlawful sale and the real property; and
(v) A forfeiture of real property encumbered by a bona fide security interest is subject to the interest of the secured party if the secured party, at the time the security interest was created, neither had knowledge of nor consented to the act or omission.
(b) Real or personal property subject to forfeiture under this chapter may be seized by any board inspector or law enforcement officer of this state upon process issued by any superior court having jurisdiction over the property. Seizure of real property shall include the filing of a lis pendens by the seizing agency. Real property seized under this section shall not be transferred or otherwise conveyed until ninety days after seizure or until a judgment of forfeiture is entered, whichever is later: PROVIDED, That real property seized under this section may be transferred or conveyed to any person or entity who acquires title by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of a security interest. Seizure of personal property without process may be made if:
(1) The seizure is incident to an arrest or a search under a search warrant or an inspection under an administrative inspection warrant;
(2) The property subject to seizure has been the subject of a prior judgment in favor of the state in a criminal injunction or forfeiture proceeding based upon this chapter;

The law enforcement agency under whose authority the seizure was made shall cause notice to be served within fifteen days following the seizure on the owner of the property seized and the person in charge thereof and any person having any known right or interest therein, including any community property interest, of the seizure and intended forfeiture of the seized property. Service of notice of seizure of real property shall be made according to the rules of civil procedure. However, the state may not obtain a default judgment with respect to real property against a party who is served by substituted service absent an affidavit stating that a good faith effort has been made to ascertain if the defaulted party is incarcerated within the state, and that there is no present basis to believe that the party is incarcerated within the state. The notice of seizure in other cases may be served by any method authorized by law or court rule including but not limited to service by certified mail with return receipt requested. Service by mail shall be deemed complete upon mailing within the fifteen day period following the seizure.
(d) If no
person notifies the seizing law enforcement agency in writing of the person's
claim of ownership or right to possession of items specified in subsection
(a)(4) ((or)), (a)(7), or (a)(8) of this section within
forty-five days of the seizure in the case of personal property and ninety
days in the case of real property, the item seized shall be deemed
forfeited. No real property interest may be forfeited from a person who did
not participate in the violation that gave rise to the seizure to the extent of
that person's homestead interest in the real property.
(e) If any
person notifies the seizing law enforcement agency in writing of the person's
claim of ownership or right to possession of items specified in subsection (a)(2),
(a)(3), (a)(4) ((or)), (a)(5), (a)(6), (a)(7), or (a)(8)
of this section within forty-five days of the seizure in the case of
personal property and ninety days in the case of real property, the person
or persons shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to be heard as to the
claim or right. The hearing shall be before the chief law enforcement officer
of the seizing agency or the chief law enforcement officer's designee, except
where the seizing agency is a state agency as defined in RCW 34.12.020(4), the
hearing shall be before the chief law enforcement officer of the seizing agency
or an administrative law judge appointed under chapter 34.12 RCW, except that
any person asserting a claim or right may remove the matter to a court of
competent jurisdiction if the aggregate value of the article or articles
involved is more than five hundred dollars. The court to which the matter
is to be removed shall be the district court when such aggregate value is ten
thousand dollars or less of personal property. A hearing before the
seizing agency and any appeal therefrom shall be under Title 34 RCW. In a
court hearing between two or more claimants to the article or articles
involved, the prevailing party shall be entitled to a judgment for costs and
reasonable attorney's fees. The initial burden of producing evidence
shall be upon the person claiming to be the lawful owner or the person claiming
to have the lawful right to possession of ((items specified in subsection
(a)(4) or (a)(7) of this section)) the seized property in order to
establish lawful interest in the seized property. The burden of producing
evidence that the seized property is subject to forfeiture shall be upon the
law enforcement agency. The seizing law enforcement agency shall promptly
return the article or articles to the claimant upon a determination by the
administrative law judge or court that the claimant is the present lawful owner
or is lawfully entitled to possession thereof of items specified in subsection (a)(2),
(a)(3), (a)(4) ((or)), (a)(5), (a)(6), (a)(7), or (a)(8)
of this section.
(f) When property is forfeited under this chapter the board or seizing law enforcement agency may:
(1) Retain it for official use or upon application by any law enforcement agency of this state release such property to such agency for the exclusive use of enforcing the provisions of this chapter;
(2) (i) Sell that which is not required to be destroyed by law and which is not harmful to the public. The proceeds and all moneys forfeited under this title shall be used for payment of all proper expenses of the investigation leading to the seizure, including any money delivered to the subject of the investigation by the law enforcement agency, and of the proceedings for forfeiture and sale, including expenses of seizure, maintenance of custody, advertising, actual costs of the prosecuting or city attorney, and court costs. Money remaining after the payment of all expenses shall be distributed as follows:
(A) ((Seventy-five))
Twenty-five percent of the money derived from the forfeiture of real
property and seventy-five percent of the money derived from the forfeiture of
personal property shall be deposited in the general fund of the state,
county, and/or city of the seizing law enforcement agency and shall be used
exclusively for the expansion or improvement of law enforcement services.
These services may include the creation of reward funds for the purpose of
rewarding informants who supply information leading to the arrest, prosecution
and conviction of persons who violate laws relating to controlled substances.
Such moneys shall not supplant preexisting funding sources; ((and))
(B) Twenty-five percent shall be remitted to the state treasurer for deposit in the public safety and education account established in RCW 43.08.250;
(C) Until July 1, 1995, fifty percent of money derived from the forfeiture of real property shall be remitted to the state treasurer for deposit in the drug enforcement and education account created pursuant to section 501 of this 1989 act, on and after July 1, 1995, this portion of the money shall be remitted in the same manner as the money remitted under (2)(i)(A) of this subsection; and
(D) If an investigation involves a seizure of moneys and proceeds having an aggregate value of less than five thousand dollars, the moneys and proceeds may be deposited in total in the general fund of the governmental unit of the seizing law enforcement agency and shall be appropriated exclusively for the expansion of narcotics enforcement services. Such moneys shall not supplant preexisting funding sources.
(ii) Money deposited according to this section must be deposited within ninety days of the date of final disposition of either the administrative seizure or the judicial seizure;
(3) Request the appropriate sheriff or director of public safety to take custody of the property and remove it for disposition in accordance with law; or

Controlled substances listed in Schedule I, II, III, IV, and V, which are seized or come into the possession of the board, the owners of which are unknown, are contraband and shall be summarily forfeited to the board.
(h) Species of plants from which controlled substances in Schedules I and II may be derived which have been planted or cultivated in violation of this chapter, or of which the owners or cultivators are unknown, or which are wild growths, may be seized and summarily forfeited to the board.
(i) The failure, upon demand by a board inspector or law enforcement officer, of the person in occupancy or in control of land or premises upon which the species of plants are growing or being stored to produce an appropriate registration or proof that he is the holder thereof constitutes authority for the seizure and forfeiture of the plants.
(j) Upon the entry of an order of forfeiture of real property, the court shall forward a copy of the order to the assessor of the county in which the property is located. Orders for the forfeiture of real property shall be entered by the superior court, subject to court rules. Such an order shall be filed by the seizing agency in the county auditor's records in the county in which the real property is located.

(1) When
the person in charge of a treatment facility, or his or her designee, receives
information alleging that a person is incapacitated as a result of alcoholism,
the person in charge, or his or her designee, after investigation and
evaluation of the specific facts alleged and of the reliability and credibility
of the information, may file a petition for commitment of such person with the
superior court or district court. If the person in charge, or his or her
designee, finds that the initial needs of such person would be better served by
placement within the mental health system, the person shall be referred to an
evaluation and treatment facility as defined in RCW 71.05.020. If placement in
an alcohol treatment facility is available and deemed appropriate, the
petition shall allege that: The person is an alcoholic who is
incapacitated by alcohol, or that the person has twice before in the preceding
twelve months been admitted for ((the voluntary)) detoxification or
treatment for alcoholism pursuant to RCW 70.96A.110 and is in need of a more
sustained treatment program, or that the person is an alcoholic who has
threatened, attempted, or inflicted physical harm on another and is likely to
inflict physical harm on another unless committed. A refusal to undergo
treatment, by itself, does not constitute evidence of lack of judgment
as to the need for treatment. The petition shall be accompanied by a
certificate of a licensed physician who has examined the person within ((two))
five days before submission of the petition, unless the person whose
commitment is sought has refused to submit to a medical examination, in which
case the fact of refusal shall be alleged in the petition. The certificate
shall set forth the licensed physician's findings in support of the
allegations of the petition. A physician employed by the petitioning facility
or the department is ((not)) eligible to be the certifying physician.
(2) Upon
filing the petition, the court shall fix a date for a hearing no less than ((three))
two and no more than seven days after the date the petition was filed
unless the person petitioned against is presently being detained ((by the))
in a facility, pursuant to RCW 70.96A.120 or 71.05.210, as now or
hereafter amended, in which case the hearing shall be held within seventy-two
hours of the filing of the petition: PROVIDED, HOWEVER, That the above
specified seventy-two hours shall be computed by excluding Saturdays, Sundays,
and holidays: PROVIDED FURTHER, That, the court may, upon motion of the person
whose commitment is sought, or upon motion of petitioner with written
permission of the person whose commitment is sought, or his or her counsel and,
upon good cause shown, extend the date for the hearing. A copy of the petition
and of the notice of the hearing, including the date fixed by the court, shall
be served by the treatment facility on the person whose commitment is sought,
his or her next of kin, a parent or his or her legal guardian if he or she is a
minor, and any other person the court believes advisable. A copy of the
petition and certificate shall be delivered to each person notified.
(3) At the hearing the court shall hear all relevant testimony, including, if possible, the testimony, which may be telephonic, of at least one licensed physician who has examined the person whose commitment is sought. Communications otherwise deemed privileged under the laws of this state are deemed to be waived in proceedings under this chapter when a court of competent jurisdiction in its discretion determines that the waiver is necessary to protect either the detained person or the public. The waiver of a privilege under this section is limited to records or testimony relevant to evaluation of the detained person for purposes of a proceeding under this chapter. Upon motion by the detained person, or on its own motion, the court shall examine a record or testimony sought by a petitioner to determine whether it is within the scope of the waiver.
The record maker shall not be required to testify in order to introduce medical, nursing, or psychological records of detained persons so long as the requirements of RCW 5.45.020 are met, except that portions of the record that contain opinions as to whether the detained person is an alcoholic must be deleted from the records unless the person offering the opinions is available for cross-examination. The person shall be present unless the court believes that his or her presence is likely to be injurious to him or her; in this event the court may deem it appropriate to appoint a guardian ad litem to represent him or her throughout the proceeding. If deemed advisable, the court may examine the person out of courtroom. If the person has refused to be examined by a licensed physician, he or she shall be given an opportunity to be examined by a court appointed licensed physician. If he or she refuses and there is sufficient evidence to believe that the allegations of the petition are true, or if the court believes that more medical evidence is necessary, the court may make a temporary order committing him or her to the department for a period of not more than five days for purposes of a diagnostic examination.
(4) If
after hearing all relevant evidence, including the results of any diagnostic
examination, the court finds that grounds for involuntary commitment have been
established by clear, cogent, and convincing proof, it shall make an order of
commitment to an approved treatment facility. It shall not order commitment of
a person unless it determines that an approved treatment facility is available
and able to provide adequate and appropriate treatment for him or her ((and
the treatment is likely to be beneficial)).
(5) A
person committed under this section shall remain in the facility for treatment
for a period of ((thirty)) sixty days unless sooner discharged.
At the end of the ((thirty)) sixty-day period, he or she shall be
discharged automatically unless the facility, before expiration of the period,
files a petition for his or her recommitment upon the grounds set forth in
subsection (1) of this section for a further period of ninety days unless
sooner discharged. If a person has been committed because he or she is an
alcoholic likely to inflict physical harm on another, the facility shall apply
for recommitment if after examination it is determined that the likelihood
still exists.
(6) ((A
person recommitted under subsection (5) of this section who has not been
discharged by the facility before the end of the ninety day period shall be
discharged at the expiration of that period unless the facility, before
expiration of the period, obtains a court order on the grounds set forth in
subsection (1) of this section for recommitment for a further period not to
exceed ninety days. If a person has been committed because he or she is an
alcoholic likely to inflict physical harm on another, the facility shall apply
for recommitment if after examination it is determined that the likelihood
still exists. Only two recommitment orders under subsections (5) and (6) of
this section are permitted.
(7))) Upon the filing of a petition for recommitment under
subsection((s)) (5) ((or (6))) of this section, the court shall
fix a date for hearing no less than ((three)) two and no more
than seven days after the date the petition was filed: PROVIDED, That, the
court may, upon motion of the person whose commitment is sought and upon good
cause shown, extend the date for the hearing. A copy of the petition and of
the notice of hearing, including the date fixed by the court, shall be served
by the treatment facility on the person whose commitment is sought, his or her
next of kin, the original petitioner under subsection (1) of this section if
different from the petitioner for recommitment, one of his or her parents or
his or her legal guardian if he or she is a minor, and his or her attorney and
any other person the court believes advisable. At the hearing the court shall
proceed as provided in subsection (3) of this section.
(((8)))
(7) The approved treatment facility shall provide for adequate
and appropriate treatment of a person committed to its custody. A person
committed under this section may be transferred from one approved public
treatment facility to another if transfer is medically advisable.
(((9)))
(8) A person committed to the custody of a facility for treatment shall
be discharged at any time before the end of the period for which he or she has
been committed and he or she shall be discharged by order of the court if
either of the following conditions are met:
(a) In case
of an alcoholic committed on the grounds of likelihood of infliction of
physical harm upon himself, herself, or another, ((that he or she is
no longer an alcoholic or)) the likelihood no longer exists; or further
treatment will not be likely to bring about significant improvement in the
person's condition, or treatment is no longer adequate or appropriate.
(b) In case of an alcoholic committed on the grounds of the need of treatment and incapacity, that the incapacity no longer exists.
(((10)))
(9) The court shall inform the person whose commitment or recommitment
is sought of his or her right to contest the application, be represented by
counsel at every stage of any proceedings relating to his or her commitment and
recommitment, and have counsel appointed by the court or provided by the court,
if he or she wants the assistance of counsel and is unable to obtain counsel.
If the court believes that the person needs the assistance of counsel, the
court shall require, by appointment if necessary, counsel for him or her
regardless of his or her wishes. The person shall, if he or she is financially
able, bear the costs of such legal service; otherwise such legal service shall
be at public expense. The person whose commitment or recommitment is sought
shall be informed of his or her right to be examined by a licensed physician of
his or her choice. If the person is unable to obtain a licensed physician and
requests examination by a physician, the court shall employ a licensed physician.
(((11)))
(10) A person committed under this chapter may at any time seek to be
discharged from commitment by writ of habeas corpus in a court of competent
jurisdiction.
(((12)))
(11) The venue for proceedings under this section is the county in which
person to be committed resides or is present.
(12) When in the opinion of the professional person in charge of the facility providing involuntary treatment under this chapter, the committed patient can be appropriately served by less restrictive treatment before expiration of the period of commitment, then the less restrictive care may be required as a condition for early release for a period which, when added to the initial treatment period, does not exceed the period of commitment. If the facility designated to provide the less restrictive treatment is other than the facility providing the initial involuntary treatment, the facility so designated must agree in writing to assume such responsibility. A copy of the conditions for early release shall be given to the patient, the designated county alcoholism specialist, and the court of original commitment. The facility designated to provide less restrictive care may modify the conditions for continued release when the modifications are in the best interests of the patient. If the facility providing less restrictive care and the designated county alcoholism specialist determine that a conditionally released patient is failing to adhere to the terms and conditions of his or her release, or that substantial deterioration in the patient's functioning has occurred, then the designated county alcoholism specialist shall notify the court of original commitment and request a hearing to be held no less than two and no more than seven days after the date of the request to determine whether or not the person should be returned to more restrictive care. The designated alcoholism specialist shall file a petition with the court stating the facts substantiating the need for the hearing along with the treatment recommendations. The patient shall have the same rights with respect to notice, hearing, and counsel as for the original involuntary treatment proceedings. The issues to be determined at the hearing are whether the conditionally released patient did or did not adhere to the terms and conditions of his or her release to less restrictive care or that substantial deterioration of the patient's functioning has occurred and whether the conditions of release should be modified or the person should be returned to a more restrictive facility. The hearing may be waived by the patient and his or her counsel and his or her guardian or conservator, if any, but may not be waived unless all such persons agree to the waiver. Upon waiver, the person may be returned for involuntary treatment or continued on conditional release on the same or modified conditions.
