Opinion of the Court
Relator was convicted of constructive criminal contempt by the District Court of Hennepin County on March 18, 1965. The proceedings were prosecuted: by plaintiff-respondent’s private attorney rather thari by the county attorney, and relator was not afforded a jury trial. The judgment accordingly must be reversed and remanded for proceedings consistent with Peterson v. Peterson, 278 Minn. 275, 153 N. W. (2d) 825.
Reversed and remanded for a new trial.
