If the conviction for contempt resulted from the defendant's failure to perform an act that he is still able to perform, the court may simply order him imprisoned until he performs it. In California, the statute of limitations for contempt is two years after the act or omission that constituted the contempt occurred.
An order for contempt of court can only stand legally if it meets all of the following requirements: 1  it orders a person to do or not do something that is lawful, 2  the person held in contempt knew of the order to do or not do a lawful thing, 3  the person was able to comply with the order, but. 4  the person failed to comply with the order.
