A contempt may be based on a violation of any court order including failure to pay relocation assistance. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any fines assessed for contempt shall first be held by the court and applied to satisfaction of the court’s order for relocation assistance pursuant to subdivision (d) of Section 11573.5.
