What might you be charged with if you display behavior disrespectful of the authority of a court, which obstructs the execution of court orders?

  1. Harrassment

  2. Confession

  3. Subrogation

  4. Contempt of Court

The correct answer is: Contempt of Court

Contempt of court refers to an individual's behavior that is disrespectful of the authority of a court and obstructs the execution of court orders. This can include actions such as disrupting court proceedings, disobeying court orders, or showing disrespect towards the judge or other court officials. Although the other options may seem related, they are not specifically related to behavior disrespectful of court authority. Harrassment refers to unwanted and aggressive behavior, confession refers to an admission of guilt, and subrogation refers to the substitution of one party for another in a legal claim. None of these directly relate to being charged with contempt of court.
