→Enforcement under the Divorce Act
</blockquote>
The people found to be in contempt of court in the Neufeld and Larkin cases were sent to jail, and both of these cases involved family law issues. However, the actions of these people were very serious; the court rarely sends people to jail for contempt. The court's primary goal is to get someone who has breached an order to comply with the order. Most of the time, the court will give someone the opportunity to "cure" their contempt by complying with the order before punishing them, or instead give them a warning that future breaches of the order will be dealt with more severely.
