Supreme Court of Arkansas

Hon. Annette Karem, Judge v. Justin Bryant

June 21, 20122012 Ky. LEXIS 82

Summary

The court held that the district court had exclusive subject-matter jurisdiction to require a guardian to account for guardianship funds and to order restitution, even though the accounting involved alleged mismanagement and could be adversarial. Because the district court acted within its jurisdiction, the writ of prohibition was improper. The court reversed the Court of Appeals, vacated the order requiring issuance of the writ, and remanded.
