Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The order finding the defendant in contempt of court is reversed as there is no showing, based on statements or other circumstances, that she intended to “embarrass, hinder or obstruct” the court. See Thomson v. State, 398 So.2d 514, 517 (Fla. 2d DCA 1981).

Reversed.

Dissenting Opinion

JORGENSON, Judge,

dissenting.

I respectfully dissent. The showing required by the majority opinion is not, in my view, necessary. See Fla.R.Crim.P. 3.130(b)(4)(i)(3).
