Following a finding of civil contempt for breaching a court order that restrained her from participating in the management of a corporation, the moving parties sought a 20-day period of incarceration as a penalty for the plaintiff.
The Superior Court of Justice declined to order incarceration, finding that the plaintiff had taken steps to purge her contempt and that her removal from the board of directors best served the purpose of ensuring compliance.
The plaintiff was ordered to pay $20,000 in costs.
