I sat next to a woman in traffic court who was wearing an identical ballcap as I. I was forced to remove mine, she was not. I asked the judge why this was fair that I had to remove an article of my clothing to get justice and she was allowed to keep hers on. I was fined $500 in contempt charges. There is no appeal process in municipal court, and I had to pay or be jailed. The food was lousy!

I am unsure the laws of where you are located. I live in New Hampshire. I went with my husband to court and we were both told to take off hats or sunglasses off of our heads. Women and Men both had to follow this rule.

Dave,
I believe the judge was wrong. The contempt citation sounds a bit severe. Was there more? Did you mouth off? When in court show respect for the judge.

It has been my experience, that if one makes a woman remove her Hat, one can expect way more confusion with all the hair fixing and the how do I looks.. So it's much better to just let them alone and get on with Fining you for contempt.
