Supreme Court of Arkansas

Unimeks, LLC v. Purolite

January 26, 20122012 Ark. LEXIS 39

Summary

The court affirmed the order upholding a default judgment against Unimeks. It held that the summons strictly complied with the clerk-signature requirement because the court seal created a presumption that the handwritten name was a valid signature, and Unimeks's evidence did not rebut that presumption. Because the summons was valid and service was achieved, Unimeks's request for dismissal based on untimely service failed.
