Contempt CHART

This document outlines the differences between direct and indirect contempt in the Philippines legal system. Direct contempt involves disobedience or disrespect committed directly in front of the court, while indirect contempt occurs outside the presence of the court. Direct contempt is treated as a criminal matter and can be punished summarily by the court, while indirect contempt is considered civil and requires a court order or verified petition to commence proceedings. The possible punishments and legal remedies also differ between direct and indirect contempt.
