Whoever, by threats or force, or wilfully prevents, obstructs, impedes, or interferes with, or wilfully attempts to prevent, obstruct, impede, or interfere with, the due exercise of rights or the performance of duties under any order, judgment, or decree of a court of the state of Louisiana, shall be fined not more than $1,000 or imprisoned not more than one year, or both. No injunctive or other civil relief against the conduct made criminal by this Section shall be denied on the ground that such conduct is a violation of criminal law, and, when granted, the order, judgment or decree granting such relief as to conduct which does constitute a violation of criminal law shall be construed as a mandate to all law enforcement officers to take such affirmative action as may be necessary to apprehend, arrest and charge any person or persons who engage in such conduct.
