A The small claims division of District Court is designed to allow individuals to settle certain disputes in Court under relaxed rules of procedure and without attorneys. The civil division of District Court is generally utilized by parties represented by attorneys or by collection agencies or certain corporations not allowed to file in the Small Claims Division.
Q What are court costs?
A The court cost is not a fee for appearing in court; it is a fee
that the Court has been mandated by the State of Arkansas to collect
upon each conviction. The court costs are collected by the Court and
forwarded to the State of Arkansas’ Administration of Justice Fund to
support various agencies.
Q What is the geographical area of district courts?
A With a few exceptions, district judges are elected countywide
and therefore have countywide jurisdiction.
