California courts can enforce a child support order by holding the delinquent parent in âcontemptâ of court. Being held in contempt means the judge believes you have willfully disobeyed a court order. Contempt can be criminal or civil. If the delinquent parent is held in criminal contempt, the court can order him or her to pay fines or serve jail time. A parent held in civil contempt may also be sent to jail, but can be released as soon as he or she pays a certain amount of the past due child support.
