Supreme Court of Arkansas
Arkansas Department of Human Services v. Bradley Ledgerwood, Louella Jones, Peggy Sanders, Marcus Strope, Winnie…
April 11, 2019571 S.W.3d 1
Summary
The court dismissed DHS's appeal as moot because the permanent injunction against the 2015 ARChoices rule had been dissolved after DHS promulgated a new rule that remained in effect. The court declined to apply either the capable-of-repetition or substantial-public-interest exception because the challenged issues were not presently live and depended on facts specific to future rulemaking.
