Supreme Court of Arkansas

Williams v. Martin

May 14, 20142014 Ark. 210

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of the voter’s request to remove Angela Byrd from the ballot and affirmed the ruling that the automatic suspension of an attorney’s license for nonpayment of an annual fee violated procedural due process. Because the suspension was void, Byrd satisfied the constitutional six-year licensing requirement and remained eligible to seek the circuit-judge position.
