Cal. Civ. Proc. Code § 1220 — OF CONTEMPTS is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

When the warrant of arrest has been returned served, if the person arrested does not appear on the return day, the court or judge may issue another warrant of arrest or may order the undertaking to be enforced, or both. If the undertaking is enforced, the measure of damages is the extent of the loss or injury sustained by the aggrieved party by reason of the misconduct for which the warrant was issued.
