No. 20020225.

663 N.W.2d 657 (2003)

2003 ND 96

Jenese A. PETERS-RIEMERS, Plaintiff and Appellee, v. Roland C. RIEMERS, Defendant and Appellant.

Supreme Court of North Dakota.

June 17, 2003.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael L. Gjesdahl, Gjesdahl & Associates, Fargo, for plaintiff and appellee.

Jonathan T. Garaas, Garaas Law Firm, DeMores Office Park, Fargo, for defendant and appellant.


VANDE WALLE, Chief Justice.

[¶ 1] Roland C. Riemers appealed from an order holding him in contempt, and a resulting warrant of attachment and money judgment, for failing to comply with the property distribution provisions of a divorce decree. Because the record does not show that Riemers was informed of his right to counsel when his incarceration became a likely result of the contempt proceedings, we reverse and remand for further proceedings.
