Description

The primary question in this case, which involves the invocation of the contempt powers of a district court in a proceeding instituted by an administrative agency to enforce discovery in a contested case, is whether the court lacked subject matter jurisdiction. As an incident of the enforcement proceeding, the district court found an attorney for a party guilty of indirect criminal contempt. The appeal raises other claims of error to the effect that: the order of the court placed an impossible burden upon the respondent attorney; a separate case, brought in the name of the State of Wyoming, must be instituted to prosecute an indirect criminal contempt; and the respondent attorney was denied due process of law as guaranteed by both the federal and the state constitutions. We conclude that the district court lacked subject matter jurisdiction and, therefore, it is unnecessary to address the additional issues. The order finding the respondent attorney in contempt is reversed.
