Here, plaintiff was compelled to bring this motion to enforce the terms of the Judgment of Divorce, and defendant has failed to rebut the statutory presumption that plaintiff, as the less monied spouse, is entitled to attorney's fees (see Mollah v Mollah, 136 A.D.3d 992, 994 [2d Dept 2016]). Plaintiff has submitted itemized billing statements as proof of the attorney's fees incurred by her, which establish the "extent and value of [the] services" rendered to her (see Yakobowicz v Yakobowicz, 217 A.D.3d 733, 737 [2d Dept 2023]).
To prevail on a motion to hold a party in civil contempt, the movant must establish by clear and convincing evidence (1) that a lawful order of the court was in effect, clearly expressing an unequivocal mandate, (2) the appearance, with reasonable certainty, that the order was disobeyed, (3) that the party to be held in contempt had knowledge of the court's order, and (4) prejudice to the right of a party to the litigation (see Judiciary Law ยง 753[A][3]; El-Dehdan v. El-Dehdan, 26 NY3d 19, 29; Matter of Fitzgerald, 144 AD3d 906, 907, 41 NYS3d 271). Once the moving party makes this showing, the burden shifts to the alleged contemnor to refute the movant's showing, or to offer evidence of a defense, such as an inability to comply with the order (see El-Dehdan v.El-Dehdan, 26 NY3d at 35; Matter of Fitzgerald, 144 AD3d at 907, 41 NYS3d 271; Mollah v. Mollah, 136 AD3d 992, 993, 26 NYS3d 298; Lundgren v. Lundgren, 127 AD3d 938, 940-941, 7 NYS3d 393).
