Rule 1.03 Sanctions

If you're involved in a court case and you break these court rules, the judge can punish you for it. This applies to anyone the rules cover, including parties in the case, lawyers, and others involved in the process.

The punishment can take different forms. The court might hold you in contempt, issue sanctions against you, or take other disciplinary action. The judge decides what kind of response fits the situation based on what rule was broken and how serious the violation was.

The main point here is simple: these rules aren't just suggestions. If you ignore them or fail to follow them, you could face real consequences from the court.
