SUPREME COURT OF ARKANSAS, March 9, 2006, Opinion Delivered
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: In a capital murder case, a court erred by denying a mistrial where the victim's sister testified that her brother stole defendant's marijuana plants and that she was afraid for her brother to be around defendant because her nephew died mysteriously after the theft; the statement was not only prejudicial but also irrelevant, Ark. R. Evid. 404(b).

|||||
Overview: Summary judgment was improperly granted in favor of company where buyer's buyer report evinced prior oral agreement between the buyer and the company; therefore, the report satisfied the merchants' exception as a writing in confirmation of the contract, pursuant to Ark. Code Ann. § 4-2-201(2), which removed alleged contract from Statute of Frauds.

SUPREME COURT OF ARKANSAS, March 9, 2006, Opinion Delivered
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Evidence was sufficient to sustain a first degree murder conviction, under Ark. Code Ann. § 5-10-102, where defendant's own statements to the police, some of which contained inconsistencies, his conduct before and after the crime, and statements of the victim's friends regarding her fear of defendant tended to connect him to the murder.

SUPREME COURT OF ARKANSAS, March 9, 2006, Opinion Delivered
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Petitioner was properly denied habeas corpus relief after he was allegedly forced to forfeit good-time credit as result of a prison disciplinary proceeding because his reliance on Ark. Code Ann. § 16-90-121 was misplaced; statute did not nullify § 12-29-201(d), which held that meritorious good time did not apply to reduce the length of a sentence.

|||||

SUPREME COURT OF ARKANSAS, March 9, 2006, Opinion Delivered
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Prisoner appealed from a circuit court's dismissal of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Reviewing court dismissed appeal because, under Ark. Code Ann. § 16-112-105, the circuit court could not issue a writ when it did not have personal jurisdiction over the prisoner; the circuit court did not have personal jurisdiction over the prisoner.
