Provides that upon a finding of contempt against the minor or guardian, the court may sentence the minor or guardian to a period of incarceration in the county jail in the case of a guardian, or in the nearest juvenile detention facility, in the case of a minor; provided that the court shall contemporaneously enter a purge order which provides that the minor or guardian may be released from custody upon verification that the minor is attending school as certified by the Regional Office of Education.
