The petition shall be served upon the court that committed the person, the prosecutor of the jurisdiction into which the committed person is to be released, the director of the department of mental health, the head of the facility housing the person, and the attorney general. The hearing and trial, if any, shall be conducted according to the provisions of section 632.498 .
