Case Summary

(This summary is temporary while we research the case further). On February 2, 2026, three individuals brought a putative class action against the Arkansas Department of Corrections. Represented by the ACLU of Arkansas, the plaintiffs alleged that the state's parole policies denied parolees access to attorneys in violation of the constitution, that the state violated the ADA by failing to provide proper accommodations to disabled parolees, and that state parole officers pressured people into waiving their rights without explaining the potential consequences. The case is ongoing.
