Appeals court upholds Barnett contempt finding in Mississippi case
Nine judges sitting en banc convict Barnett for defying federal orders to allow Meredith on the campus. The governor did not participate. Dissenters argued against the sentence portion lifting the fine. The court cited Barnett’s actions as deliberate to impede federal court orders and cooperation with agents. Meredith’s admission was reviewed by the district court. Johnson, who barred Meredith, also missed contempt hearing. The first missile launch from Cape Canaveral occurred July 26, 1960.
