Docket entry
130757 Commonwealth v. Amos 02/27/2014 In an appeal from imposition of imprisonment for summary contempt, the Court of Appeals did not err in holding that the contemporaneous objection exception in Code § 8.01-384(A) allows a litigant who was precluded by the trial court from asserting a contemporaneous objection to the trial court's ruling or order to raise the issue on appeal, notwithstanding the provisions of Rule 5A:18. Because this exception applies, no further steps were required to preserve her issues for appellate review. The judgment of the Court of Appeals considering the appeal, reversing the summary contempt conviction, and entering final judgment, is affirmed.
