Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• retrial barred because the trial court failed to consider alternatives to the immediate incarceration of the defendant’s counsel for contempt, which then necessitated a mistrial
• where other alternatives were available, trial court erred in declaring mistrial, sua sponte, after finding defense attorney in contempt
• trial court acted without considering alternative remedies to a mistrial, which was not shown to be manifestly necessary
