Supreme Court of Arkansas May 25, 1970, 5-5219 (Arkansas State Highway Comm'n v. Montgomery)

Conley Byrd, Justice.

The sole issue in this eminent domain action is whether the trial court abused its discretion in refusing appellant Arkansas State Highway Commission a continuance when it discovered during trial that the landowners, appellees Ralph D. and Marie Montgomery, had by interlineation amended their answer to claim $14,000 instead of $8,000 as just compensation.
