A judge can hold you in jail as long as they reasonable belive that you could be compelled by that to do what you were orderdd to do. I belive the record is over four years. After they no longer belive that you might be compelled they have to release you. They can then charge you with obstruction of justice, give you a trial and put you in prision for several years on a felony charge.
