   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  17-3219
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
   [PUBLISHED] [Melloy, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Stras, Circuit 
   Judge] 
   Civil case - Constitutional Law. The district court did not err in 
   granting a statewide preliminary injunction preventing Arkansas from 
   enforcing its anti-loitering law while plaintiffs pursue their claim that 
   the law - Ark. Code Ann. Sec. 5-71-213 (2017)(amended 2019) - violates 
   their First Amendment free-speech rights; plaintiff have standing to 
   pursue their suit as they established an injury in fact fairly traceable 
   to the potential enforcement of the law and that their claims can be 
   redressed by an injunction prohibiting enforcement; the district court did 
   not err in determining that plaintiffs were likely to prevail on their 
   claim that the law violates the First Amendment because Arkansas has so 
   far failed to establish that the law is narrowly tailored to achieve a 
   compelling state interest; because plaintiffs established likelihood of 
   success on their First Amendment claims, they have satisfied the remaining 
   Dataphase factors, as well. Judge Stras, dissenting.
