Paragould hires a Sheriff for the ridge and the Rockingchair house
Arkansas Constitution Article 7, § 46: four years. Sheriff sits on the gubernatorial table. Amendment 95 moved the desk from two years to four beginning 2018.
- Preferential primary: Tuesday, 3 March 2026 (already sat).
- Primary runoff: Tuesday, 31 March 2026 (already sat where needed).
- General: Tuesday, 3 November 2026.
- County/municipal runoff: Tuesday, 1 December 2026 if this race needs one.
- Take office: Ark. Code § 21-1-102 — Thursday, 1 January 2027.
- Vacancy: Quorum Court appointment within thirty days (§ 14-14-1310). Not the Governor.
The Governor is 2026. That is not this oval. Eleven justices of the peace sit on a two-year clock — not this oval. The County Judge is four years — not this oval. An Alabama rumor does not hire this badge. Marmaduke is a city, not the hall. Lafe is not the hall. Little Rock is still the capital. Jonesboro does not hire this badge.
Absentee with the County Clerk on 320 West Court, not 1809 Rockingchair
Absentee and voter registration for this county sit with the County Clerk at 320 West Court Street, Room 102, Paragould, AR 72450 (phone 870-239-6311). That is not 1809 North Rockingchair as the clerk, not an Alabama board of elections as a substitute for this absentee desk. Confirm registration, sample ballot, and absentee on sos.arkansas.gov/elections and VoteView.

What you are hiring — ridge patrol and a Rockingchair house
You are hiring the Sheriff of Greene County, Arkansas — unincorporated patrol, warrants, civil process, courthouse security at 320 West Court, and detention at 1809 North Rockingchair. You are not hiring Paragould PD. You are not hiring ADC. You are not hiring an Alabama Sheriff. You are not hiring the Governor.
Read the office page for 1809 North Rockingchair as this door, Paragould as the seat, Eutaw as not the hall, and the 450-bed house as this jailer.
Remedy when a writ misses Marmaduke remainder
A bad service or a paper that missed Marmaduke remainder — this Sheriff’s door and the courts. Eleven JPs are not the internal-affairs substitute for a paper. Not a comment section. Not Eutaw. Not Paragould City Hall as this oval.
Relief when the St. Francis leaves the banks or U.S. 49 ices
High water on the St. Francis or the Cache, a wreck on U.S. 49, a night road toward Lafe, fog on the Missouri line — this county’s mutual aid first. Clay is a different count. Craighead is a different count. Lawrence is a different count. Paragould city hall is a different government.
Service — papers on the ridge, a Court Street docket, a Marmaduke night shift
Papers. A Paragould courtroom in the 1997 hall. Night hours the office actually posts. 911 on an unincorporated U.S. 412 frontage remains this badge. County detention remains 1809 North Rockingchair — not Eutaw.
Due process does not wait for an Alabama rumor
A levy in Delaplaine still needs notice. Confirmation of sale is still the court. The Constitution does not pause because a visitor photographed Eutaw, or because a visitor photographed Jonesboro.
Rights from Marmaduke remainder to the Craighead line
Equal protection on the ridge map. Counsel. Property. Humane custody. A worker in Paragould and a family in Lafe hire the same Sheriff.
