  • The Arkansas Supreme Court ruled that Chief Justice Karen Baker tried to fire several officials unilaterally shortly after assuming office.
  • In response, the court implemented new procedures for terminating employees to prevent disruption to the justice system.
  • Baker's attempts to fire court employees are described as retaliatory, linked to their handling of open-records requests about her.
  • The court's order rescinds any firings since her assumption of office and requires support from at least four justices for dismissals.
  • Baker previously defeated Justice Rhonda Wood for the chief justice position in a race characterized by political tensions.
