Description
After examining the briefs and the appellate record, this three-judge panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not be of material assistance in the determination of this appeal. See Fed.R.App.P. 34(a); Tenth Circuit R. 10(e). The cause is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument. Daryl Riewe seeks review of a district court order finding him in contempt of court for failing to appear at a hearing where he was to show cause why a summons issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) should not be enforced. The district court ordered Riewe confined in the county jail for a period of thirty days with the provision that he could purge himself of the contempt sanction by providing the records sought by the IRS summons. When reviewing a district court's finding of contempt, we are limited to determining whether the court abused its discretion. V.T.A., Inc. v. Airco, Inc., 597 F.2d 220, 226 (10th Cir. 1979).
