Question presented
Does the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment limit the power of a state court, to order the compelled sale of a private person’s real property as a penalty for civil contempt despite the person’s repeated attempts to satisfy the alleged contempt? to impose obligations and liabilities upon an intervening party who, in this case, neither owns nor has legal obligations for the real property in question?
