I would like to know what constitutes "silent contempt".

Sticking out tongue. Giving middle finger salute. You need more?

Sometimes staring right through somebody who is talking to you can be a very contemptous act.

Legally, if a judge orders me to tell him what my client said, and I stand silent, I am in contempt even though I have said nothing. Silent contempt.
