What does it mean to be held in âcontempt of courtâ? In a personal injury or other type of trial, a judge may issue an order to hold a party, an attorney, or another person in contempt of court if that person has been disobedient, disrespectful, or acted in another way that disrupted the courtâs proceedings.
Arizona employers would be required to pay a minimum wage of $12 an hour by 2020, if an initiative qualifies for the ballot and passes.

Arizona's minimum wage was $8.05 per hour in 2016. The federal minimum wage was $7.25. Due to Proposition 202 of 2006, the state's minimum wage increased with the cost-of-living. Without Proposition 206, Arizona's minimum wage was expected to increase to $8.15 in 2017. In November 2016, voters in Flagstaff, Arizona, voted on and approved a measure increasing their city's minimum wage to $15 an hour.
