The mother of a child had persistently refused to comply with an order to give contact with her child to the father. She had been committed for contempt, and appealed.
Held: The circumstances left the court with no other choice than to impose the suspended committal order. The order gave the mother another opportunity to demonstrate her intention to comply with the order.
