Supreme Court of Arkansas
Nate Douglas, Thomas Derico, Lisa Smith, and Leroy Robinson
November 3, 20112011 Ark. LEXIS 547
Summary
The court answered a certified question concerning the limitations period for an employee's private action under the Arkansas Minimum Wage Act. It held that the three-year period for liabilities created by statute applies because the private right of action contains no express limitations period. The court clarified that a prior decision reached a five-year result only because multiple limitations periods applied there. No separate opinions were filed.
