Supreme Court of Arkansas

State of Arkansas, Appellant v. Robert Canada, Appellee

September 22, 20162016 Ark. LEXIS 265

Summary

The court dismissed the State's appeal because it was not a permissible State appeal under the governing appellate rule. The appeal sought review of the circuit court's fact-specific application of due-process principles to an unusually long delay, rather than interpretation of law or an issue important to the uniform administration of criminal law. The court therefore did not reach the merits of the due-process claim.
