Arkansas Courts

The League of Women Voters of Arkansas is asking a federal judge to halt five new laws that change the way voters propose measures and constitutional amendments.

Civil rights attorney Austin Porter Jr. represents the plaintiffs, who previously filed complaints with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission

The report recommends Baker be barred from certain employee offices for violating anti-harassment rules.

The larger court declined Baker's request to throw out a lawsuit, after she left out a document said to disprove allegations against her.

Patty Hector was fired as the director of the Saline County Library after she refused to relocate books that offended some community members.

The request is the latest stumble in a rocky start for Chief Justice Karen Baker.

The law would have criminalized librarians who provide material considered “harmful to minors.”

A three-judge panel took no action Monday after listening to about two hours of arguments in a federal lawsuit that challenges Arkansas’ U.S. House congressional district map.

A federal judge on Tuesday denied a temporary delay in the implementation of an anti-casino constitutional amendment that Arkansas voters approved last week.

A law clerk and a circuit judge are facing off for a soon-to-be-vacant seat on the Arkansas Court of Appeals.
