Warnock v. Warnock
Citations: 337 Ark. 540; 989 S.W.2d 922; 1999 Ark. LEXIS 268Docket: 98-698
Court: Supreme Court of Arkansas; May 20, 1999; Arkansas; State Supreme Court
Ann Warnock Laser has filed a motion for the release of a supersedeas bond previously paid to the court, which is intended to stay the collection of a judgment against her former husband, Stephen Warnock. She seeks to have the funds released to satisfy the judgment awarded to her. Stephen Warnock, the appellant, contests this motion, asserting that the bond amount exceeds what is owed to Ann and raising issues regarding the correct amounts owed, including attorneys’ fees. Both parties present factual issues that were also part of Warnock's appeal, which the court previously declined to address due to insufficient documentation. Consequently, the court denies the motion to release the bond as premature and remands the case to the trial court to determine the appropriate distribution of the bond funds, address attorneys’ fees, and report back to the appellate court on these determinations. Judge Glaze did not participate in the decision.
