They both accused the other being in contempt of court, which is when someone disobeys or disrespects the court and\/or its orders. They each demanded that the other be sentenced to jail time (Taylor eventually dropped her incarceration plea).<\/p>\n<p>The order revealed a hearing took place on July 25, where Taylor, 34, and Shumpert, 35, were both present with their lawyers.<\/p>\n<p>The judge heard testimony from Taylor and Shumpert, third-party witnesses and reviewed evidence submitted by the exes.<\/p>\n<p>Per the order, the court denied Taylor\u2019s request to find Shumpert in contempt. The judge said she had failed to \u201cpresent sufficient evidence\u201d to support her allegation that the former NBA star leaked information regarding their divorce judgment to the press.
