Supreme Court of Arkansas

Ryan Chance Gore A/k/a R. Chase Gore v. Arkansas Teachers Federal Credit Union

March 14, 2019568 S.W.3d 761

Summary

The court held that the circuit court properly denied Gore’s motion to dismiss and entered default judgment because ATFCU served him by warning order before the applicable service deadline expired. The phrase “an additional 120 days” in each extension order extended service time consecutively from the expiration of the preceding period, making March 9, 2017, the final deadline; service occurred on March 8. Accordingly, the default judgment was not void for lack of personal jurisdiction.
