Little Rock, AR- Nearly two weeks after the Arkansas Supreme Court ruled against a restring order on the Learns ACT, a second stop by the same judge occurring.
Pulaski County Circuit Court Judge Herbert Wright issued the ruling Friday, claiming Arkansas Legilators made an error while passing the bill.
That error being that their was no roll call vote, as required, for the emergency-clause listed in the act.
Meaning changes that schools were making to meet the Learns ACT guidelines, have now have now come to a halt for the second time, and they will be unable to make preparation until August.
Cutting it extremely close to start of the school year.
The suit was brought by teachers and staff of the Marvell-Elaine School District, and Citizens for Arkansas Public Education and Students, or CAPES.
This comes as contracts at Marvell-Elaine School District are now on hold, as the school did not renew contract knowing this would take place in the Summer.
More case could come against Arkansas, as looking back multiple acts including emergency-clauses have been passed without a separate roll-call vote.
The state supreme court had ruled on June 20th that the act was passed with a separate dual-vote process. That then led to the restraining order being lifted.
