Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Willard Proctor, Jr., P.A., by: Willard Proctor, Jr. , Little Rock, for appellant.

Juan Cruz appeals the Monroe County Circuit Court's order granting the State's petition for forfeiture of $ 65,850, arguing the circuit court erred in granting the petition prior to the expiration of his time to respond. We agree with Cruz's argument and, therefore, we reverse and remand.
