Kenneth Setliff’s alleged contempt for Ninth Judicial District Court is persistent.

Setliff was picked up by officers Monday and booked at 1 a.m. with four counts of contempt and five of failure to appear/pay fine.

He remained in jail Tuesday night under $10,000 bail.

“Bubba,” as he is known, is familiar with the bail/bond process, availing himself of it nine previous times since 2021.

Four of those arrests were in 2023. A felony charge is among accusations involved in those bookings, but contempt is the constant from case to case. The rap sheet:
