Supreme Court of Arkansas
Donnell Bauer and Marilyn Bauer v. Jesse Lee Beamon, Jr. and Mary A. Beamon
March 6, 20252025 Ark. 16
Summary
The court held that the circuit court retained jurisdiction to consider the Bauers' post-appeal motions for attorney's fees and to set aside the opposing attorney-fee judgment for fraud. Because those issues arose after the prior appeal and were not addressed by the appellate mandate, the mandate did not foreclose them. The court reversed the jurisdictional ruling and remanded for consideration of both motions on their merits.
