     588.04 Arrest; order to show cause.  


    In cases of constructive contempt, an affidavit of the 
 facts constituting the contempt shall be presented to the court 
 or officer, who may either issue a warrant of arrest to bring 
 the person charged to answer or, without a previous arrest, upon 
 notice, or upon an order to show cause, which may be served by a 
 sheriff or other officer in the same manner as a summons in an 
 action, may commit the person to jail, impose a fine, or both, 
 and make such order thereupon as the case may require.
