        The court found that Hoskins was in contempt, but he managed to purge the contempt by hearing time. (i.e. he came into compliance with the court order by directing election officials to use the 2022 map.)

          absolute coward. The court should have deputized someone to drag his ass in regardless.

          No way in hell I get a free pass for telling the judge “I totally stopped speeding, promise, so Im gonna skip the court showing”
