Indirect contempt of court, occurs when a person willfully disregards or disobeys an order outside the presence of a judge. It carries with it up to six months in county jail. Indirect contempt is one of several ways to collect child support or alimony in the state of Oklahoma.

?Unauthorized practice of law? occurs where any person gives legal advice of any kind or acts on behalf of a client in any legal matter without authorization under this act.

Oklahoma law requires the establishment of the following facts in order to make a prima facie case for contempt: 1. An obligation to pay child support through an order of district or administrative court has been established; 2. The obligor knew or should have known an order for support was in place; and 3.

The first step is to make sure an existing court order has been violated. Once the violation is established your attorney will prepare an Application for Contempt and set an arraignment date. At the arraignment the party charged with contempt will plead either guilty or not guilty.

21 O.S. 2011, § 565 categorizes contempts of court as either direct or indirect. Direct contempts involve disruptive conduct in the presence of the court, while indirect contempts involve disobeying or resisting execution of court orders or process outside of the court's presence.
