Hey Soc!

I was posting on another board and someone mentioned that you said there were 3 elements of contempt. What are they?

Thanks

1. Valid and enforceable court order exists.
2. Defendant knows or should reasonably know of the existence/terms and conditions of the order.
3. Defendat willfully and with conscious disregard, disobeys the court order.
