County Refund Act Held Void
The Arkansas Supreme Court ruled the 1941 Hollensworth act unconstitutional. It authorized counties to refund more than one million dollars in outstanding warrants against the highway trust fund. The measure violated Amendment 20 by pledging state credit for debt. The decision reversed a Pulaski chancellor ruling in a test case brought by taxpayer H. A. Carpenter against State Comptroller Murray McLeod.
