Eddy R. MIRANDA, Petitioner, v. Lois SPEARS, as Director, Miami-Dade County Department of Corrections, Respondent.
    No. 99-1034.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
    June 2, 1999.
    Alexander Kapetanakis, Coral Gables, for petitioner.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, and Keith S. Kromash, Assistant Attorney General, for respondent.
    Before GERSTEN, FLETCHER and SHEVIN, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

We grant the petition to the extent that petitioner received insufficient notice that he was facing criminal contempt charges. We therefore reverse the criminal contempt finding and sentence, “with leave for the lower court to conduct further proceedings after giving the [petitioner] notice of an intention to pursue a charge of criminal contempt.” Young v. Wood-Cohan, 727 So.2d 322, 323 (Fla. 4th DCA 1999).
