Description

Petitioner seeks annulment of an order of the respondent court vacating the suspension of a sentence for contempt and ordering the sentence "into effect forthwith." Said sentence had been imposed upon petitioner for his failure to make certain payments for the support of his former wife and his child as provided in the spouses agreement and decree of divorce. He contends that enforcement of his obligations thereunder through contempt proceedings constitutes a violation of the constitutional prohibition against imprisonment for debt. (Cal. Const., art. I, ? 15.) Our review of the record leads us to the conclusion that petitioners contention must be sustained.
