D.R. "Buddy" WALLIS, Appellant v. FORD MOTOR COMPANY, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Arkansas.

May 12, 2005.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Turner & Associates, by: Tab Turner, North Little Rock; and Thrash Law Firm, by: Thomas P. Thrash, Little Rock, for appellant.

Wright, Lindsey & Jennings, by: Edwin L. Lowther, Jr., and Troy A. Price, Little Rock; O'Melreny & Myers, LLP, by: Stephan J. Harburg and Katherine H. Wang (of counsel, Washington, D.C.), for appellee.


ANNABELLE CLINTON IMBER, Justice.

The instant appeal involves an issue of first impression. This court is asked to determine whether the circuit court erred in dismissing a class-action fraud and statutory deceptive trade practices lawsuit arising out of the purchase or lease of an allegedly defective vehicle where the only injury complained of is a diminution in value of the vehicle. We hold that the complaint was properly dismissed by the circuit court.
