They were both previously found to be practicing veterinary medicine without a license and were ordered to stop by the Veterinary Board, which has statutory authority to enforce the Veterinary Medicine Practice Act. They chose to ignore those orders, and to continue flouting the law. They are now serving sentences for contempt.
They had due process when the original cases were started against them. If they think the law is stupid, then they should have been working to change it. Thumbing their noses at it got them exactly what they have now - 30-day sentences for contempt.
