C.R.S. § 16-8-117: Advisement on matters to be determined.

When a determination is made as to a defendant's eligibility for conditional or unconditional release, the court shall explain to the defendant the nature and consequences of the proceeding and the rights of the defendant pursuant to this section, including the defendant's right to a jury trial upon the question of eligibility for conditional or unconditional release. The defendant may request a hearing that must be granted as a matter of right. At the hearing, the defendant and the prosecuting attorney are entitled to be present in person, to examine any reports of examination or other matter to be considered by the court as bearing upon the determination, to introduce evidence, summon witnesses, cross-examine witnesses for the other side or the court, and to make opening and closing statements and argument. The court may examine or cross-examine any witness called by the defendant or prosecuting attorney and may summon and examine witnesses on its own motion.
