The emergency relief granted a motion to expedite, meaning Thurston will have until Monday, July 29 to perform the initial count of signatures collected by volunteer canvassers and provide the state supreme court with the findings.

The state Supreme Court also said a part of the motion of emergency relief could grant the petitioner, Arkansans for Limited Government, a thirty-day provisional cure period, meaning they will have 30 days starting Monday to collect the signatures they think they will need to fulfill the requirements for it to go on the ballot this November.
