Arkansas court upholds $3m award for 1.62 acres after 11-year road dispute

A long-standing legal dispute in Arkansas involved a land acquisition that significantly impacted property access. The Arkansas Court of Appeals recently upheld a $3 million jury compensation award related to this case. The case emerged after the Arkansas State Highway Commission's project restricted access to a property owned by the William Major Lewis Trust. Evidence submitted demonstrated that the remaining property value was adversely affected by the highway work.
