The Travelers Indemnity Company and Stephen E. Goldman v. the Board of Trustees of the University of Arkansas

Summary

The court held that revoking the out-of-state attorney’s pro hac vice admission was an abuse of discretion because the circuit court found no professional misconduct and acted without notice or an opportunity to be heard. The court had interlocutory jurisdiction over that disqualification ruling, but it lacked jurisdiction to review the challenge to the jury-selection policy because that issue was not independently appealable under the interlocutory-appeal rules. The disqualification ruling was reversed and remanded, and the jury-selection issue was dismissed.
