State of Arkansas, Appellant v. Mark Wright, Appellee

Summary

The court dismissed the State's interlocutory appeal from an order suppressing Wright's statements because the appeal did not satisfy the requirement that review be necessary for the correct and uniform administration of justice. The court concluded that the suppression ruling involved the application of established law to unique circumstances and mixed questions of law and fact, rather than an issue requiring authoritative interpretation. The appeal was therefore not within the permissible scope of a State appeal under Rule 3.
