Supreme Court of Arkansas

Mitchell v. Post-Prison Transfer Bd.

April 2, 20152015 Ark. 140

Summary

The court denied Mitchell's request to proceed in forma pauperis for filing a motion seeking to compel the clerk to lodge his appeal record because he failed to demonstrate a colorable cause of action. The court also explained that the circuit court's unfiled order denying indigent status was not an effective appealable order. Mitchell was given thirty days to pay the filing fee if he wished to pursue the motion.
