Thomas Schultz v. Butterball, LLC

Summary

The court affirmed dismissal with prejudice of Schultz's claims against his employer arising from wage withholding for child-support arrearages. It held that an out-of-state income-withholding order may be sent directly to an Arkansas employer, which must comply with an order regular on its face and is immune from civil liability for doing so. The court also rejected the due-process and state constitutional challenges, declined to consider the res judicata and collateral-estoppel arguments as unpreserved, and upheld treatment of the dismissal as summary judgment.
