The court may not impose punishment during the course of the proceeding at which the contempt occurs, unless prompt punishment is imperative.(c) Punishment. The court may not punish a person under this rule by imprisonment for longer than 6 months, or by a fine greater than $300, or both, unless the person either has been found guilty of contempt by a jury or has waived the right to a jury trial.Formerly Rule 33.2 added Aug. 31, 2017, effective 1/1/2018; renumbered Rule 35 Aug. 29, 2019, effective 1/1/2020.
