Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. King James 2000 Bible. Watch and pray, that you enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. American King James Version.
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.
A judge may impose sanctions such as a fine or jail for someone found guilty of contempt of court. Judges in common law systems usually have more extensive power to declare someone in contempt than judges in civil law systems. The client or person must be proven to be guilty before he/she will be punished.
