In Re Booker

Court of Appeals of Georgia

1Opinion of the Court

Benham, Judge.

By means of an order filed December 9, 1986, the trial court adjudged M. V. Booker, an attorney, to be in wilful contempt of court. On March 18, 1987, the trial court denied Booker’s motion to set aside the judgment, as well as her motion to recuse the trial judge. On April 6, 1987, Booker then filed with this court an application for review of the December order holding her in contempt. The application for review was dismissed because an order finding one in contempt of court is a subject for direct appeal. OCGA § 5-6-34 (a) (2); Ramsey v. Ramsey, 231 Ga. 334 (1) (201 SE2d 429)…
