Arkansas Supreme Court reverses and remands ruling in Lewallen v. Progress for Cane Hill
The Arkansas Supreme Court on Oct. 31, 2024, reversed and remanded a Washington County Circuit Court ruling in CV-24-587, Becky Lewallen, in her official capacity as Washington County clerk, v. Progress for Cane Hill, a local‑option ballot question committee, and ordered that the mandate issue immediately.

The decision was entered by Justice Shawn A. Womack. Special Justice Bilenda Harris‑Ritter joined the majority. Justice Wood filed a separate concurrence. Justices Baker and Hudson dissented. Chief Justice Kemp did not participate.

The case caption identifies the appeal as coming from Washington County Circuit Court. The supplement to the court’s proceedings records the court’s formal disposition—reversed and remanded—and the immediate issuance of the mandate. The transcript provided does not include the full opinion text or the lower court’s ruling details.

Because the Supreme Court remanded the matter, the case returns to the Washington County Circuit Court for further proceedings consistent with the high court’s judgment. The mandate was ordered to issue immediately, per the supplement to proceedings.
