You can read the full lawsuit details here>>>
The lawsuit is being filed by Rod Corley and the “Moonshine Festival” against the city of Fairfield Bay over Mayor Jackie Sikes for killing the “Moonshine Festival” and ruining his events without cause.
Lawsuit Reveals Jackie Sikes Killed The “Moonshine Festival”
According to the documents, Rod Corley donated money and personnel to the city of Fairfield Bay under the understanding the promotional material would be taken and shared by the city:
“The initial Ozark Moonshine & Music Festival was held the first weekend of November 2022, partially utilizing the funds donated by Corley. The funds expended were spent in accordance with the initial Memorandum of Understanding, a portion of which was for inventory of logo embossed promotional materials such as T-shirts, stickers, decals, ballcaps, magnets, and camping chairs… the promotional items were the property of the City of Fairfield Bay, Arkansas, and the left-over items were stored in a room located in the City owned Conference Center.”
When Jackie Sikes was barely elected as Mayor, she immediately ordered Rod Corley to remove all inventory from the Conference Center, even though it belonged to the city, as the expense of Rod Corley:
“Newly installed Mayor Sikes directed that the Festival personnel promptly remove the inventory from the Conference Center, which they did at the expense of time and money to the Festival and Rod Corley.”
Jackie Sikes’ made even MORE unreasonable demands. At one point she even required the Moonshine Festival to PAY for products they had donated to the city for his events in the first place!!!
“Another example of ridiculous demands made by the Mayor was the proposed charges for the use of kiosks, originally constructed and paid for by the Festival founder Rod Corley through donations to the City. The City did not use the kiosks for any other purposes and they remained idle and left to weather in the elements behind the Conference Center.”
Needless to say, it’s not okay that Mayor Jackie Sikes is using her professional position to carry out petty vendettas against people who don’t support her political campaign.
Especially, when it costs Fairfield Bay one of the most successful events in the city’s history.

I wish I could sign the petition and. She is so hateful and vindictive. I work at the conference center last year during the moonshine festival. The things she did were so wrong. That’s when I seen her true colors. I hope you get the votes you need.
