I have applied for a job that checks your background for felony and misdemeanor charges. I recently found that I have a contempt of court fine for a seat belt ticket in NJ. Is this a misdemeanor?
You can be held in contempt of court.
Neither. Government Code section 21.002, Contempt of Court, does not classify contempt at all, although the punishments are consistent with a misdemeanor rather than a felony, except that in cases a contemner may be confined for a period not exceeding 18 months.
Neither - civil penalties are not classified as misdemeanors or felonies. It is simply "contempt of court" for which you can be fined (but rarely jailed).
