Rule 8.071 - PERSONAL APPEARANCE REQUIRED FOR SHOW CAUSE ORDER OF CONTEMPT; MOVING PARTY'S FAILURE TO APPEAR FOR HEARING; TIME FOR HEARING; CONTENT OF ORDER(1) A show cause order for contempt of court shall be contained in a separate document from any show cause order or orders for other relief. Such orders shall require the responding party to personally appear in court at the time established by the court which shall be at least 14 days after the date of service of the order on the responding party. The moving party must also appear and be prepared to proceed at the time and date stated in the Order, unless previous arrangements have been made with the court by the parties or their attorneys to have the matter specially set for hearing.(2) In the absence of such arrangements, the failure of the moving party to appear at the stated date and time, or to be prepared to proceed at such time, will result in dismissal of the contempt proceeding unless the court finds extenuating circumstances and orders the continuation of the proceedings.(3) The hearing will be held at the date and time stated in the order unless the court orders the matter to be specifically set for hearing at a later date in order for counsel for the responding party to be retained by the responding party or appointed by the court, or because the hearing will be protracted.(4) Every show cause order for contempt of court shall contain the following notice: NOTICE You must personally appear in the above entitled court and case at the date and time specified in this Order. If you fail to appear in court at such date and time, you may be arrested and held in custody for the purpose of being brought before the court to answer the contempt charges which have been made against you. |
