Arkansas Code § 28-39-309 - Recovery of Dower or Curtesy Lands Taken From Surviving Spouse -- Damages

If the land assigned and laid off to any surviving spouse is deforced from his or her possession, the surviving spouse shall have an action for the recovery of possession of the land, with double damages for the deforcement, or a surviving spouse may sue for the damages alone and recover double the actual damage sustained from time to time, until the surviving spouse is put in possession of the dower or curtesy held by the deforcer or detainer.
