Anthony Williamson v. Daniel Shue, Prosecuting Attorney, Sebastian County, Arkansas

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Williamson's motion for reconsideration of the dismissal of his petition for declaratory judgment and mandamus. Because he was incarcerated after a felony conviction, the Freedom of Information Act barred him from accessing the requested prosecutorial records, leaving him without a legally protectable interest or a justiciable controversy. The court also concluded that the circuit court did not abuse its discretion.
