Ark. R. Civ. P. 64
COMMENT
Reporter's Notes to Rule 64: Prior to 1984, there was no Rule 64. The Rule was adopted in 1984 to state the procedural requirements for withdrawal of counsel which had been addressed in Rule 9 of the Uniform Rules for Circuit and Chancery Courts. The new Rule is based upon DR2-2110 of the Code of Professional Conduct [superseded].
Reporter's Notes, 1987 Amendment: As adopted in 1984, Rule 64 dealt only with withdrawal of counsel, a topic also covered by Rule 9 of the Uniform Rules for Circuit and Chancery Court. The 1987 amendment addresses the employment of additional counsel, an issue heretofore covered by Rule 8 of the Uniform Rules. The amendment makes no change in existing law.
Reporter's Notes (2017): Subdivision (a) was amended to add, "Except as provided in Rule 87 of these rules," upon the adoption of Rule 87.
