# Office of the Arkansas Attorney General
The Office of the Arkansas Attorney General — Attorney General Tim Griffin — intervenes in utility rate proceedings before the [[Arkansas Public Service Commission]] as a statutory advocate for ratepayers, challenging utility cost claims on behalf of the captive customers who cannot choose their provider.
## People
- [[Greg R. Meyer]] — consultant with Brubaker & Associates, Inc., retained as the Attorney General's expert witness.
## Roles in this corpus
- In the GAJA rider docket (26-008-TF), the Attorney General filed [[Attorney General Testimony on the GAJA Rider|direct testimony]] arguing that Entergy Arkansas used an unreasonably low short-term-debt balance and so overstated the return charged to customers on $1.24 billion of construction-in-progress.
## Notes
The Attorney General is the ratepayer-advocate counterweight in APSC dockets. In contesting the GAJA rider it disputed the financing method, not the allocation of the new-generation cost across customer classes — it did not argue that data-center load should bear the cost.
