Supreme Court of Arkansas

Robert Taylor v. Arkansas Post-Prison Transfer Board and Arkansas Division of Correction

November 13, 20252025 Ark. 176

Summary

The court dismissed Taylor’s appeal because the circuit court dismissed his petition for failure to obtain valid service of process and therefore never acquired personal jurisdiction over the appellees. Because the dismissal was without prejudice and Taylor could refile his claims, the order was not a final, appealable order on the merits.
