COMPLIANCE WITH ORDERS
S 1071. Failure to comply with terms and conditions of suspended judgment. If, prior to the expiration of the period of the suspended judgment, 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 a suspended judgment issued under section one thousand fifty-three of this article, the period of the suspended judgment 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 suspended judgment, the court may revoke the suspension of judgment and enter any order that might have been made at the time judgment was suspended. S 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. S 1073. Effect of running away from place of placement. If a child placed under section one thousand fifty-five runs away from the place of placement the court may, after hearing, revoke the order of placement and make any order, including an order of placement, that might have been made at the time the order of placement was made. The court may require that the child be present at such hearing and shall appoint an attorney to represent him or her. S 1074. Release from responsibility under order of placement. Those responsible for the operation of a place where a child has been placed under section one thousand fifty-five may petition the court for leave to return the child to the court and for good cause shown be released from responsibility under the order of placement. After hearing, the court may grant the petition and make any order, including an order of placement, that might have been made at the time the order of placement was made. S 1075. Special duties of attorney for the child. In addition to all other duties and responsibilities necessary to the representation of a child who is the subject of a proceeding under this article, an attorney for a child shall upon receipt of a report from a child protective agency pursuant to sections one thousand thirty-nine, one thousand thirty-nine-a, one thousand fifty-two-a, one thousand fifty-three, one thousand fifty-four, one thousand fifty-five, one thousand fifty-seven and one thousand fifty-eight, review the information contained therein and make a determination as to whether there is reasonable cause to suspect that the child is at risk of further abuse or neglect or that there has been a substantive violation of a court order. Where the attorney for the child makes such a determination, the attorney shall apply to the court for appropriate relief pursuant to section one thousand sixty-one. Nothing contained in this section shall relieve a child protective agency or social services official of its duties pursuant to this act or the social services law. Top of Page
