Supreme Court of Arkansas
Granger v. Farm Bureau Mut. Ins. Co.
January 28, 20162016 Ark. 25
Summary
The court dismissed the appeal because the record was not timely lodged. It held that the circuit court's extension order was void for failing to strictly comply with the procedural requirements governing extensions of time, including notice and an opportunity for the opposing parties to be heard. The court also treated the motion to dismiss and stay the briefing schedule as a motion to reconsider the earlier motion-for-clerk ruling and awarded the appellee $1,500 in attorney's fees.
