MEMORANDUM OPINION
v. 	Record No. 0408-00-2 	PER CURIAM
JUNE 10, 2003
COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA
FROM THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE CITY OF PETERSBURG
James F. D'Alton, Jr., Judge
Arthur C. Kreiger, II, pro se.
(Louis A. Rosenstock, III, Special Assistant
City Attorney, on brief), for appellee.
Appellee submitting on brief.
Arthur C. Kreiger, II, appeals the trial court's denial of
his motion for court-appointed counsel and copies of transcripts
for his defense of a contempt proceeding.1 In Kreiger v.
Commonwealth, 38 Va. App. 569, 567 S.E.2d 557 (2002) (en banc),
we held that Kreiger's contempt proceeding was civil in nature
and thus he was not entitled to transcripts or court-appointed
counsel on appeal. 	Both the rationale and the holding of our en
banc decision apply to Kreiger's request for court-appointed
1 Kreiger's pro se appeal brief raises other issues that
were not presented to the trial court. 	Finding no basis for
invoking the ends of justice or good cause exceptions to Rule
5A:18, we do not address these procedurally defaulted issues.

counsel and transcripts in the trial court. 	As a result, we
affirm for the reasons stated in our en banc opinion.
Affirmed.
