FARMER, Judge.

We agree that the order of contempt was error. A finding of contempt must be based on evidence and not solely on the unsworn statements of counsel. See Petition of Hughes, 318 So.2d 409 (Fla. 4th DCA 1975). We reverse the finding of contempt and remand for an evidentiary hearing.

POLEN and SHAHOOD, JJ., concur.
