SCHWAB, Chief Justice.
Defendant appeals from an order finding him in direct contempt of the Lane County Circuit Court and sentencing him to 30 days in custody. The incident precipitating the contempt order occurred at the close of a pretrial hearing. At that time defendant shouted repeated obscenities at the judge. The judge told defendant he was in contempt; defendant again vilified the judge; and the judge sentenced him.
