REYNOLDS, Chief Justice.

In an original habeas corpus proceeding, our Cause No. 07-83-0290-CV, relator Nancy Jane Karr seeks her release from an alleged illegal confinement in jail by virtue of a written order of commitment for contempt of court. The commitment issued upon the trial court’s adjudication of relator’s contempt for refusing to obey the court’s prior order decreeing access by her former husband, Faron Ray Jordan, to their child on designated weekends. We provided for relator’s release on proper bond pending our determination of the validity of the judgment ordering her confined.
