Ark. Code Ann. § 12-62-708: Fines and penalties on contracts

(a) If compliance with the terms of a contract is stayed under this subchapter, a fine or penalty may not accrue by reason of failure to comply during the period of the stay.

(b) If a service member has not obtained a stay and a fine or penalty is imposed for nonperformance of an obligation, a court may relieve enforcement if the service member was in military service when the penalty was incurred and his or her ability to pay or perform was materially impaired.
