RULE 3-648. ENFORCEMENT OF JUDGMENT PROHIBITING OR MANDATING ACTION

    When a person fails to comply with a judgment prohibiting or mandating action, the court may order the seizure or sequestration of property of the noncomplying person to the extent necessary to compel compliance with the judgment and, in appropriate circumstances, may hold the person in contempt pursuant to Rules 15-206 and 15-207. When a person fails to comply with a judgment mandating action, the court may direct that the act be performed by some other person appointed by the court at the expense of the person failing to comply. When a person fails to comply with a judgment mandating the payment of money, the court may also enter a money judgment to the extent of any amount due.
