Supreme Court of Arkansas

Russell Alexander Geaslin v. Dexter Payne

March 5, 20262026 Ark. 46

Summary

The court affirmed the dismissal of Geaslin's challenge to his parole revocation and later conviction for failing to update his sex-offender registration address. It held that returning him to prison for violating parole continued his original sentence, while prosecuting his later, separate failure to report an address change punished a new offense and did not violate double-jeopardy protections or the applicable statutory framework.
