Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James B. Gibson, Public Defender, and Anne Moorman Reeves, Asst. Public Defender, Daytona Beach, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Anthony J. Golden, Asst. Atty. Gen., Daytona Beach, for appellee.

We further note that the judgment of conviction for direct contempt fails to recite the underlying facts upon which the adjudication of guilt is based. See Gidden v. State,
