Marty Boling v. Lona McCastlain, Chairwoman, Arkansas Post-Prison Transfer Board

Summary

The court dismissed Boling’s appeal as moot because the one-year parole denial at issue had expired, so a ruling would have no practical legal effect. The court also held that neither recognized exception to mootness applied because the claim concerned a reason specific to Boling rather than a recurring or substantial-public-interest issue.
