562 So. 2d 855 | Fla. Dist. Ct. App. | 1990
Lead Opinion
Adrienne Jackson petitions this court for the issuance of a writ of habeas corpus to obtain her release from the Orange County Jail where she was incarcerated after the court found her in direct criminal contempt and sentenced her to 60 days in jail. We previously stayed the contempt order and directed Jackson’s release from custody pending further proceedings in this court.
We issue the writ, vacate the order of contempt and remand because the record
Writ GRANTED; Order of Contempt VACATED; REMANDED.
Dissenting Opinion
dissenting.
I would reverse the contempt order and direct petitioner be discharged. Her procedural due process rights were ignored, the evidence is insufficient to support a direct criminal contempt conviction and she has served time in jail. Enough is enough.
