G....v.Souder (A.), 305 S.W.2d 883. (1987) Dialogue between assistant county prosecutor to judge regarding alleged statement made by prosecutor to newspaper held to constitute indirect criminal contempt.  Judge's order placing prosecutor in contempt was in error finding prosecutor in contempt without having given prosecutor prior notice that such hearing would be conducted as required by this section.
