The juvenile court or the circuit court, as the case may be, of its own motion

the circuit court shall before modifying or revoking such order grant a hearing
after notice in writing to the complainant, if any, and to the person or agency
having custody of the child; provided, however, that this section shall not
apply in the case of a child committed to the Department after sixty days from
the date of the order of commitment.
