In my experience, if you threaten someone with a consequence, you have to follow through. If you only keep threatening, the point of the other consequence is moot.
The best way to do it is to 1st issue a warning about what you are doing. 2nd, upon failing to follow the rules, you do what you are doing.
If you don't do it after the 1st warning, you are feckless. You can skip the 1st step if threatened by the person beforehand.
On a different note. I think Don Von Shitzhimself is really looking for an excuse to not atten Barron's HD graduation, and jail would be the perfect pitty party for him to share with his supporters
I fully expect Merchan to follow through with this threat if it happens again. As far I'm aware, it sounds like the subject of this 2nd contempt hearing actually happened before the 1st contempt hearing, but came to light afterward, so it wasn't a "I'll let you off light this time" scenario. Future violations will undoubtedly lead to jail time...I think the media shit storm will be intolerable
