Any person who violates the terms of an order issued under this article shall be subject to proceeding for contempt of court. The court issuing the injunction may retain jurisdiction if, in its discretion, it determines that to do so is in the best interest of the elderly person, protected person, or incapacitated adult. If the court determines that an injunction issued under § 55-7J-5 of this code has been violated, the court may award reasonable costs to the party asserting that a violation has occurred.
