IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS
JONESBORO DIVISION
BLAKE LISCOMB

v.

PLAINTIFF
No. 3:17-cv-36-DPM

HENRY BOYCE, Individually and
in his Official Capacity as a Prosecutor;
JEFF FLOYD; and TONY ANGLIN

DEFENDANTS

ORDER

I've known Henry Boyce for many years. Though I don't recall for sure,
we were probably in cases together as young lawyers in Northeast Arkansas.
We have been involved in various professional activities together.

The

allegations here are personal, and they're made against Boyce individually, as
well as in his official capacity as Prosecuting Attorney. Punitive damages are
also sought. I conclude that my impartiality might reasonably be questioned
in these circumstances. I therefore recuse. The Clerk must reassign this case
at random by chip exchange.
So Ordered.
