Courtroom burp lands N.J. man in contempt
The Millville man was in court for a traffic matter.
Nyshawn B. Mutcherson, 22, of Millville, was in the courtroom for a traffic case on June 19 when he burped, the Vineland Daily Journal reported.
When Judge Lauren Van Embden ordered Mutcherson to apologize to the courtroom, he refused, the story reported.
The judge then held Mutcherson in contempt. He was issued a summons and released pending a hearing. On Thursday, the court administrator said Mutcherson was not represented by an attorney, the Journal reported.
