The order of the high court was not obeyed or complied by the respondent, hence the contempt of high court would  be maintainable in high court

Dismissal of SLP do not attract provisions governing the subject of Contempt of Court.

Facts posted are not very clear, consult your lawyer who is proceeding / contesting your case(s) in High Court as well as Supreme Court. S/he is well aware about facts of the case and law applicable on the subject, just have faith in her / him (your lawyer).
