Description
Appellant was adJudged in contempt of court for violation of a child support order entered by the district court. From the order adjudging him in contempt appellant appeals. The author of this opinion has serious reservations as to the propriety of an appeal from judgments and orders of contempt. I.C. § 7-614 expressly provides that ""[the] judgment and orders of the court or Judge, made in cases of contempt, are final and conclusive."" We have previously ruled that a contemnor should proceed by way of an extraordinary writ, and not by appeal. Mathison v. Felton, 90 Idaho 87, 408 P.2d 457 (1965); Poff v. Scales, 36 Idaho 762, 213 P. 1019 (1923); Levan v. Richards; 4 Idaho 667, 43 P. 574 (1896).
