Case Number
M2001-01863-CCA-R3-CD
I respectfully dissent from the majority’s holding that the Defendant’s conviction for criminal contempt of court should be affirmed. While I agree that the trial court did have the authority to suspend the Defendant’s driver’s license, I do not believe that the Defendant was sufficiently placed on notice that his conduct of driving a car could result in his being held in contempt.
