(4.) If on the investigation the Court is satisfied that the resistance or obstruction complained of was without any just cause, and that the person who has obtained the judgment is still resisted or obstructed in obtaining effectual possession of the property adjudged to him by the judgment, by the judgment debtor or by some person at his instigation, the Court may, at the instance of the person who has obtained the judgment and without prejudice to any proceedings to which the judgment debtor or such other person may be liable for such resistance or obstruction, commit the judgment debtor or such other person to prison for such period, not exceeding thirty days, as may be necessary to prevent the continuance of such resistance or obstruction.

(5.)
