The appellee argues on motion for rehearing that the rulenisi is a citation by definition from Black's Law Dictionary.
The word citation in § 30-2-54, Ala. Code (1975), has been held to mean a finding by the court that the party was in contempt of court. Smith v. Smith, 365 So.2d 88 (Ala.Civ.App. 1978). To do otherwise would be violative of due process of law.
OPINION EXTENDED. APPLICATION FOR REHEARING OVERRULED.
All the Judges concur.
