§ 1072. Failure to comply with terms and conditions of supervision.

If, prior to the expiration of the period of an order of supervision

pursuant to section one thousand fifty-four or one thousand fifty-seven

of this article, a motion or order to show cause is filed that alleges

that a parent or other person legally responsible for a child's care

violated the terms and conditions of an order of supervision issued

under section one thousand fifty-four or one thousand fifty-seven of

this article, the period of the order of supervision shall be tolled

pending disposition of the motion or order to show cause. If, after

hearing, the court is satisfied by competent proof that the parent or

other person violated the order of supervision willfully and without

just cause, the court may:

(a) revoke the order of supervision or of protection and enter any

order that might have been made at the time the order of supervision or

of protection was made, or

(b) commit the parent or other person who willfully and without just

cause violated the order to jail for a term not to exceed six months.
