COWIN, J.

We are called on to decide whether the Superior Court has jurisdiction to revoke probation and impose sanctions for behavior occurring after the date on which a defendant's probation was scheduled to terminate when the defendant was on notice that revocation proceedings had begun but had been continued at his request.

The essential facts are contained in a Superior Court judge's memorandum of decision and are not disputed.1
