PER CURIAM
On October 22, 2009, we issued an order for Elvetta J. Stacy, court reporter, to appear
before this court at 9:00 a.m., Thursday, November 5, 2009, to show cause why she should
not be held in contempt of court for her failure to comply in a timely manner with the
command of the writ of certiorari, as previously ordered.
Elvetta J. Stacy appeared on November 5, 2009. At that time, she entered a plea of
not guilty and requested a hearing. Therefore, we appoint the Honorable Rice Van Ausdall
as a master to conduct the hearing. After the hearing, we direct the master to make findings
of fact and file them with the court. Upon receiving the master’s findings, we will decide
whether Elvetta J. Stacy should be held in contempt.
Special master appointed.
