    In the Matter of Anthony Amicucoi, on Behalf of Marie Moore, Respondent, v. James C. Moore, Appellant.
   In a proceeding pursuant to section 454 of the Family Court Act to commit appellant to jail for failure to obey a prior support order of the Family Court, Westchester County, dated September 13, 1972, directing him to pay $30 per week support for his wife and their two children, the appeal is from an order of said court, dated January 9, 1973, which, after a hearing, granted the application, committed appellant to the Westchester County Penitentiary for 90 days, but suspended tile commitment on condition that there be no further violation “ of Court Order”, and increased the support order to $50 a week current support, plus $10 per week towards $450 accumulated arrears. Order reversed, on the law, without costs, and proceeding remanded to the Family Court for a new hearing, at which appellant shall be offered the option of obtaining assigned counsel. The questions of fact have not been considered. This determination is without prejudice to any increase by the Family Court of the original amount of $30 support, if made after a full hearing into the parties’ relative circumstances and upon a showing of a change in the parties’ circumstances warranting such an increase. The Family Court’s examination of the witnesses, appellant and his wife, was informal and shallow and no one was placed under oath. There was no relation back to earlier proceedings' or any line of questioning to elicit facts that would show that the parties’ relative situations had changed since the original support order was made. Accordingly, we think the increase of the support award in this enforcement proceeding was erroneous and we •remand the matter to the Family Court for a hearing on all the issues raised by the petition, including the question of willful disobedience. Hopkins, Acting P. J., Munder, Martuseello, Shapiro and Brennan, JJ., concur.
