Opinion delivered August 1, 2006
Mike Beebe, Att’y Gen., by: Ka Tina R. Hodge, Ass’t Att’y Gen., for petitioners.
No response.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
The temporary restraining order is dissolved for failure to join the Bryant School District, a necessary party under Ark. R. Civ. P. 19 (2006), prior to the issuance of the temporary restraining order. Failure to join the Bryant School District before the temporary restraining order was issued constituted a plain, manifest, clear, and gross abuse of discretion. See King v. Davis, 324 Ark. 253, 920 S.W.2d 488 (1996), Arkansas Game & Fish Comm'n v. Herndon, 365 Ark. 180, 226 S.W.3d 776 (2006). Accordingly, the petitions for writ of certiorari by the Arkansas State Board of Education, et. ah, and the Bryant School District are hereby granted.
Glaze, J., concurs.
