Generally, yes. In California, Penal Code Section 166(a)(4) makes it a misdemeanor to willfully disobey a court order, which would include child custody orders, no harassment orders, and other restraining orders. If the no contact order is related to domestic violence, Penal Code Section 273.6 makes violating the order a misdemeanor.
