Cook v. Cook
Citations
- 937 N.W.2d 286
- 2020 ND 11
Syllabus
Technical violations of a court order do not necessarily require a finding of contempt. A court is not required to make an explicit finding of contempt when no further remedy would result and the only purpose would be to taint the alleged contemnor. When a matter is left to the broad discretion of the district court, it is envisioned there is a broad range of factual scenarios in which the court is left to make its choice, and whichever choice it makes will be upheld on appeal.
Judges: Crothers, Daniel John
