I understand that there is a question about whether or not criminal 
contempt of court charges will result in a criminal record of the same
sort as (say) stealing something.  This seems to be supported by Legal
aid's originally refusing to defend people charged with criminal contempt
of court last year, because it wasn't considered very serious (despite
the "criminal" label).

Any lawyers out interested in commenting on this?

In biblical times, rome was known for it's great cedars.
What rome did to Lebanon, we are now doing to BC.
