Collins was personally served with the petition and summons on April 28, 2025. Mr. Collins has not filed any response to the petition. He is therefore in default under Ark. R. Civ.

The name of Michael David Collins of Fort Smith, Arkansas, shall be removed from the registry of attorneys licensed by the State of Arkansas. Further, he is enjoined from engaging in the practice of law in this state unless permitted pursuant to a law license granted by another duly authorized state or jurisdiction and in accordance with the rules and procedures governing the practice of law in Arkansas.

It is so ordered.
