1Opinion of the CourtRobin F. Wynne, Associate Justice
|, Appellant Mike Wilson filed this illegal-exaction suit in the Pulaski County Circuit Court alleging that certain acts of 2015, which appropriated funds from the Arkansas General Improvement Fund (GIF) to eight planning and development districts, are unconstitutional. The circuit court granted summary judgment in favor of the defendants. Wilson now appeals, and the defendants have cross-appealed the circuit court’s rulings in Wilson’s favor on standing and mootness. For the reasons set out below, we reverse and remand on direct appeal, and we affirm on cross-appeal.
