Notice of Another Crisis? Storage …
In a story that has been playing out for a few days, outgoing Pulaski Circuit/County Clerk, Pat Obrien is wanting to shred court documents. In an article from the Arkansas Democrat Gazette “O’Brien said the records needed to be shredded to help avert a storage crisis. The files had been electronically duplicated, and made easily and reliably accessible by computer to the judges”
It was also reported that over 50,000 files from cases dating from the mid-1980s to the late 1990s by Obrien’s predecessor. So why the brouhaha now? Maybe someone in Pulaski county could let me know.

Stand for America. Stand with the majority.
Perhaps we remember earlier this week, I believe, when a drunk driver who was in violation of his probation and due to go to prison was let off because the court/circuit clerk, whomever could not get their hands on the original agreement dictating the prison time. So, this is just one example of why we need the originals. Shredding documents is never a good idea.
