How do you respond to a Notice of Appearance for Contempt of Court?

What it means is that someone has filed a motion with the court asking that the court find you in contempt - probably alleging that you failed to do something the court had previously ordered you to do. The judge will not rule on the motion to find you in contempt until you have been offered the opportunity to respond to the allegation. The Notice to Appear is issued affording you the right to respond. Therefore, simply go to court on the date specified prepared to respond to, or contest, the allegations made in the motion. However, if you fail to respond to the notice to appear, it is likely that the judge will probably grant the motion in default (i.e.; your lack of defense)... so, make sure you show up.
