    The US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit upheld a district court's finding that Thomas Hodgetts was in contempt of court and its order enjoining further picketing by Hodgetts. The appeals court reviewed the record and determined that the district court did not abuse its discretion in entering the contempt finding or injunction against additional picketing.
