Proceedings concerning an alleged violation of probation may be initiated by the court on its own initiative or by motion. A motion shall state each condition of probation that the respondent is alleged to have violated, the nature of the violation, and the requested relief.
The court shall enter an order directing the respondent to show cause why the relief should not be granted and setting a time and date for a hearing. The clerk shall cause a copy of the motion, if any, and the show cause order to be served on the parties. If the show cause order is issued on the court's initiative, the order shall state each condition of probation that the respondent is alleged to have violated and the nature of the violation.
The court shall hold a hearing to determine whether a violation has occurred and, if so, whether the probation should be revoked or modified. The respondent shall be given the opportunity to admit or deny the alleged violations, to testify, to present witnesses, and to cross-examine the witnesses testifying against the respondent. If the respondent is found to be in violation of any condition of probation, the court shall (1) specify the condition violated and (2) afford the respondent the opportunity, personally and through counsel, to make a statement and to present information in support of or in opposition to any modification of the existing order.
If the respondent is found to be in violation of a condition of probation, the court may extend the probation as permitted by Code, Courts Article, § 3-8A-19.6.
