In the Matter of CAMILLE ARGUINZONI, Respondent, v. DAVID ARGUINZONI, Appellant.

Ordered that the appeal from so much of the order dated April 6, 1994, as imposed consecutive terms of imprisonment, is dismissed, without costs or disbursements, as that portion of the order was superseded by the order dated July 26, 1994, made upon reargument; and it is further,

Ordered that the order dated April 6, 1994, is otherwise affirmed, without costs or disbursements; and it is further,

Ordered that the order dated July 26, 1994, is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, without costs or disbursements, upon reargument, the provision of the order dated April 6, 1994, which imposed consecutive terms of imprisonment is deleted, and a provision is substituted therefor stating that the terms of imprisonment shall run concurrently.

Family Court Act § 846-a provides, in part, that "[i]f a [party] is brought before the court for failure to obey any lawful order issued under this article and if, after hearing, the court is satisfied by competent proof that the [party] has willfully failed to obey any such order, the court may * * * commit the [party] to jail for a term not to exceed six months". Family Court Act § 846-a prohibits, on its face, the imposition of a sentence in excess of six months imprisonment. Accordingly, we direct that the terms of imprisonment imposed upon the appellant run concurrently (see, Matter of Vitti v Vitti, 202 A.D.2d 917).

The appellant's remaining contentions are without merit. Joy, J.P., Friedmann, Krausman and Florio, JJ., concur.
