Dianna Paige SAUNDERS, Petitioner,
v.
WILDER BROTHERS SAWMILL, INC., Bobby D. Davis and Len Pitts, Respondents.
No. 07-1249.
Supreme Court of Arkansas.
December 13, 2007.
PER CURIAM.
In accordance with § 2(D)(3) of Amendment 80 to the Arkansas Constitution and Rule 6-8 of the Rules of the Supreme Court and Court of Appeals of the State of Arkansas (2007), Judge William R. Wilson, Jr. of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas filed a motion and certifying order with our clerk on December 3, 2007. The certifying court requests that we answer one question of *813 Arkansas law that may be determinative of a cause now pending in the certifying court, and it appears to the certifying court that there is no controlling precedent in the decisions of the Arkansas Supreme Court. The law in question involves whether Ark.Code Ann. § 16-55-212(b) (Repl.2005) violates the Arkansas Constitution.
After a review of the certifying court's analysis and explanation of the need for this court to answer the question of law presently pending in that court, we accept certification of the following question: Does Ark.Code Ann. § 16-55-212(b) violate the Arkansas Constitution?
This per curiam order constitutes notice of our acceptance of the certification of question of law. For purposes of the pending proceeding in the Supreme Court, the following requirements are imposed:

Petitioner may file a reply brief within fifteen days after Respondent's brief is filed.
