Ark. Code Ann. § 24-2-201 (West 2013) is a citation to the laws of which state?

Explanation:
Recognizing state abbreviations in legal citations helps you identify which state's statutes are being cited. Ark. is the traditional abbreviation used for Arkansas in legal texts, and Ark. Code Ann. refers to the Arkansas Code Annotated—the organized statutes of Arkansas with editorial notes. The parentheses show the edition and publisher, with West being a well-known publisher of annotated codes, and 2013 the edition year. Maine would be abbreviated Me., Delaware Del., and Oklahoma Okla.—not Ark.—so this citation points to Arkansas.
