Imprisonment.
Unless the defendant shows that his default was not attributable to an intentional refusal to
obey the order of the court or to a failure on his part to make a good faith effort to make the
payment, the court may find that his default constitutes contempt and may order him committed
until the costs or a specified part thereof, are paid.
