Supreme Court of Arkansas

Exigence, LLC v. Courtney Baylark — Brown, J., Concurring

June 24, 20102010 Ark. LEXIS 353

Summary

Justice Brown concurred in the judgment but would additionally strike disrespectful language in Exigence’s briefs that accused the circuit judge of bias and retaliatory abuse of discretion. Brown reasoned that the language violated the rule prohibiting disrespect toward circuit courts, while allowing the remainder of the brief to stand. Hannah, C.J., separately concurred in the reversal and remand, relying on the insufficient specificity of the discovery order and the absence of misconduct warranting the drastic sanction imposed.
