REPORT TO THE COURT SHOWING CAUSE FOR REVOCATION, THE JUDGE

any time, but may not commit a person directly to a center.
However, with respect to a person detained in or sentenced
to a county jail, detention center, or county agency
operating such jail or detention center, the court that
ordered the detention or imposed the sentence, at any time
during the period of confinement, may, upon a recommendation
of the director of the center and the concurrence of the
Commissioner, approve the person for transfer to a center.
The center director may revoke a transfer to the center
under this subsection if the person violates the terms and
conditions of the center.]

generally inform the community advisory board periodically
with respect to the persons placed in the center.

center or its operation is in contravention of the
standards, he shall notify the director of the center and
the governing body exercising executive authority in the
county or counties, and conduct a hearing to determine the
matter.
(c) If after a hearing the Secretary concludes that
the center is in contravention of the standards, he shall
order the center to take such steps as he deems necessary to
effect compliance with the standards. This order shall be
enforceable by the circuit court in the county in which the
center is located on petition by the Secretary. The county
