If the person does not have counsel, the court shall appoint counsel to represent the person.   Following the hearing, if the court finds by clear, unequivocal, and convincing evidence that the person meets the standards of § 33-5-403, it shall order the person's return to the intellectual disability facility under the authority of the person's commitment. Otherwise, it shall order the person's release from commitment.   Either party may appeal a final adjudication under this section to the court of criminal appeals.
