Supreme Court of Arkansas

United Food & Commercial Workers Int'l Union v. Wal-Mart Stores Inc.

December 11, 20142014 Ark. 517

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of the union’s motion to dissolve or modify a stipulated preliminary injunction. It held that the circuit court’s ruling had at least two independent bases, including judicial estoppel and the merits of the preemption issue, but the union challenged only preemption on appeal. Because the unchallenged independent ground supported the ruling, the court summarily affirmed without reaching preemption.
