§ 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.
