14any installment of that fine may be held in contempt and
15imprisoned for nonpayment. The court may issue a summons for
16his appearance or a warrant of arrest.
17    (b) Unless the offender shows that his default was not due

19his part to make a good faith effort to pay, the court may
20order the offender imprisoned for a term not to exceed 6 months
21if the fine was for a felony, or 30 days if the fine was for a

16restitution, judgment of bond forfeiture, judgment order of
