James Dockery v. Brett Morgan Craig Campbell George Dunklin, Jr. Ronald Pierce Rick Watkins Ron Duncan Emon Mahony…

Summary

The court affirmed dismissal of the appellant’s amended complaint challenging the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission’s gas leases, the handling of lease revenues, the tax status of Commission lands, and the liability of individual officials. It held that the first count relied on conclusory and speculative allegations and sought relief not properly connected to the claims, the illegal-exaction count concerned non-tax revenue and lacked supporting facts, and the taxation claim was within the exclusive jurisdiction of county courts. The court also upheld dismissal of the individual-capacity claims on immunity and pleading grounds and held that the request for an injunction pending appeal was moot.
