Smith, longest serving Arkansas Justice, noted for incisive judgements, outrageous practical jokes

George Rose Smith was praised as “an example of what a judge ought to be” by one legal scholar. In his 37 years on the Arkansas Supreme Court, he never failed to make an impact KENNETH bRIDGES or earn the respect of his History peers. As a judge, writer, Columnist and prankster, Smith cer- tainly had one of the most interesting lives of any state supreme court justice. Smith was born into a distinguished Arkansas family in Little Rock in 1911. His father was a noted Presbyte- rian minister. His grandfather, Uriah Rose, was the name behind the prestigious Rose Law Firm and had also served as a judge and a diplomat. Poverty in the sight of God From an early age, Smith demonstrated a remarkable intelligence. He graduated at the top of his class from “[Jesus said,] ‘Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is means. If you have the means to clothe, feed, and shelter Little Rock High School in 1928. He later attended Wash- the kingdom of heaven.’” Matthew 5:3, NRSV. yourself, then you’re not poor by Jesus’ standards.

Smith became a beloved figure in the legal community for his sharp sense of humor. On each April Fool’s Day, he often issued fake rulings as a practical joke. In 1968, he issued a fake opinion declaring that every law in Arkan- sas had been repealed. In 1985, he issued another fake opinion about the conviction of two twin brothers he had made up, Kilkenny Catt and Gallico Catt, teasing readers Metabolic syndrome a threat to health throughout the opinion.
