There is criminal and civil contempt of court. An example of criminal contempt is yelling at the judge or otherwise interfering with the ability of the court to function properly. Civil contempt is when a person willfully disobeys a court order. Fines and jail in civil contempt is generally not intended to punish--it is designed to motivate. A person is typically released as soon as they comply with the court order.
