Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Upon the respondent’s proper confession of error, the emergency petition for writ of habeas corpus is granted and the petitioner is to be released forthwith where there was insufficient evidence to support the lower court’s determination that the petitioner has the present ability to pay the purge amount in this civil contempt proceeding. See Johnson v. Felton, 655 So.2d 1286 (Fla. 3d DCA 1995).
