Gibbons, D. J.,
concurring:
I concur with the majority. From reviewing the record on appeal, there appears to be at least four occasions when the trial judge either sanctioned or threatened to sanction the attorney for the Appellant in the presence of the jury. Even if the conduct of counsel for the Appellant warranted a finding of contempt and a *625fine, the court should have done so without the jury present. Meek v. State, 112 Nev. 1288, 930 P.2d 1104, 1109 (1996). These cumulative errors are prejudicial enough to warrant reversal.
