Cite as 2012 Ark. 355 SUPREME COURT OF ARKANSAS No. CR 12-397 STATE OF ARKANSAS APPELLANT V. KENDRICK ROBINSON APPELLEE Opinion Delivered September 27, 2012 MOTION TO DISMISS STATE’S APPEAL CONCURRING OPINION. PAUL E. DANIELSON, Associate Justice I agree with the majority to grant Robinson’s motion to dismiss because the plain language of Arkansas Rule of Appellate Procedure–Criminal 3(a) (2012) permits the State an interlocutory appeal from a pretrial order granting a motion to suppress, not from a pretrial order denying reconsideration of an oral ruling.
