Depends on what for. If they are ordered to return your kids they typically wait until they are found in contempt to return them. They dont mine paying fines with tax money.
Civil contempt is designed to get you to comply with an existing court order. If you are found in contempt or fail to attend the hearing the court can have you arrested. If you are outside the state where the order is issued and get picked up they may or may not transport you back to the state where you were found in contempt.
You could: Sue them for contempt (file a motion for contempt), file a motion in limine (motion to suppress) anything found in the file; you could even go as far as having them removed from the case for some type of undeclared discrimination in the case (retaliation).

Contempt of the court
An action that interferes with a judge's ability to administer justice or that insults the dignity of the court. Disrespectful comments to the judge or a failure to heed a judge's orders could be considered contempt of court. A person found in contempt of court can face financial sanctions and, in some cases, jail time.
There really is no technical name assigned. If you violate a court order you would be found "In Contempt."
The only one who can file a contempt motion is either the Defendant or Plaintiff. Motion for Contempt is filed when the conditions of a court order have NOT been met and it is a request for immediate (as immediate as you can get through the courts) resolution.
You could be found in contempt.

While contempt of court may be either civil or criminal contempt, there is no "degree" in the same way that there are degrees of crimes in general. It is uniquely withing the jurisdiction of the court in which the contempt occurs to determine an appropriate punishment or remedy for either civil or criminal contempt. In a way, as far as contempt of court goes, the court truly is judge, jury and executioner.
