State of Arkansas, Appellant v. Christopher Brashers, Appellee

Summary

The court dismissed the State's interlocutory appeal because the suppression order involved a fact-specific mixed question of law and fact rather than a purely legal issue warranting review under Rule 3(c). The circuit court had based its ruling on the particular evidence concerning the deputy's involvement in the insurance investigators' activities. Justice Hart concurred in the dismissal but would have dismissed because the State failed to obtain a ruling on its reasonable-expectation-of-privacy argument.
