1Opinion of the Court

ABOUSSIE, Justice.

Julius Drew, Sr. appeals the injunction and the contempt order rendered against him by the district court. The injunction barred him from the unauthorized practice of law and the contempt order punished him for violating the injunction. By eight points of error, Drew challenges the constitutionality of the supporting statute, the validity of the order, the jurisdiction of the court, and the refusal to appoint him an attorney. We will affirm the judgment of the district court.
