Fatpipe, Inc. v. State of Arkansas Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration Office of State Procurement

Summary

The court dismissed Fatpipe’s appeal because the Office of State Procurement’s decision rejecting Fatpipe’s bid protest was an administrative decision, not an adjudication subject to judicial review under the Arkansas Administrative Procedure Act. Because the circuit court lacked subject-matter jurisdiction, the supreme court also lacked jurisdiction to consider Fatpipe’s standing, sovereign-immunity, joinder, and contract-validity arguments. The opinion contains no separate writings.
