Rosalina: But you didn't.
Robert: But I DON'T.
Rosalina: You sure that's right?
Robert: I was going to HAVE told you they'd come?
Rosalina: No.
Robert: The subjunctive?
Rosalina: That's not the subjunctive.
Robert: I don't think the syntax has been invented yet.
Rosalina: It would have had to have had been.
Robert: Had to have...had...been? That can't be right.

*Sigh*

I have to read the whole thing on this one before I say anything. Which, actually, I ought to be doing with all the legal decisions that get posted here.

I do have to say that I almost disagree with the whole notion of "contempt of court" though. At the least call it something else, such as "failure to cooperate" or something. There have been a lot of U.S. courts that I find *myself* in contempt of most of the time.
