Supreme Court of Arkansas

Tiktok Inc., Tiktok Pte Ltd., Bytedance Inc., and Bytedance Ltd.

May 29, 20252025 Ark. 97

Summary

The Supreme Court of Arkansas denied TikTok and ByteDance's petition for extraordinary relief challenging the circuit court's refusal to dismiss the State's amended complaint for lack of specific personal jurisdiction. The court held that an extraordinary writ was unavailable because the petitioners had an adequate remedy through an appeal, and personal-jurisdiction issues were fact-intensive matters unsuitable for such relief.
