No contempt if these words are used against the order of the judge of lower court. However, if you use these words to the judge himself`i.e call him ‘perverse’, ‘unjust’, ‘biased’, ‘erroneous’, ‘ambiguous’ then surely he will issue a contempt notice to you...... :) :)

perverse; unjust; biased;erroneous;ambigous; and let me add "unknown to law": are standard words as spell out by Barman, are the usual use in the Court, otherwise Advocates will be handicap in expressing their thought in the Court.
