| Parties | 22 Fla. L. Weekly D244 Richard KERSH, Appellant, v. STATE FARM FIRE & CASUALTY COMPANY, Appellee. |
| Court | Florida District Court of Appeals |
Richard Kersh, in pro. per.
Charlton Lee Hunter and Linwood Anderson, Miami, for appellee.
Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and NESBITT and JORGENSON, JJ.
This is an appeal from a trial court order, implicitly finding Appellant Kersh in indirect criminal contempt and providing for sanctions. As Mr. Kersh was not afforded notice of the charge, specifics as to what conduct constituted the alleged contempt, or a hearing, we quash the order appealed. Fla.R.Crim.P. 3.840; Pugliese v. Pugliese, 347 So.2d 422, 425 (Fla.1977) (); Pryor v. Wille, 644 So.2d 346 (Fla. 4th DCA 1994) (); Russ v. State, 622 So.2d 501 (Fla. 5th DCA 1993) (), review denied, 634 So.2d 626 (Fla.1994); Benarroch v. Crawford, 516 So.2d 28, 29 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987) (); Bryant v. State, 363 So.2d 1141, 1144 (Fla. 1st DCA 1978) ().
