Description
Bruce Currie appeals from an order of the trial court finding him in contempt of court and imposing a fine of $500 or, in lieu of payment, a sentence of thirty days in the county jail. 1 Upon appeal, Currie contends that: (1) his act was not a contempt of court; (2) the trial court's findings are insufficient to support the Conclusion that a contempt of court occurred; (3) the trial court improperly used the summary procedures of sec. 785.03(2), Stats.; and (4) the trial court erred in failing to accord Currie an opportunity for allocution. We reject all of Currie's arguments with the exception of the latter. We remand for purposes of an allocution proceeding wherein Currie will have an opportunity to make a statement in mitigation of his offense.
