Here, there's a stay. The state does not have the authority to execute Don Davis. Beginning the process w/ a stay could lead to trouble.

JR Davis is Ark. Gov. Hutchinson's spokesperson. I cannot attest to the factual basis for this statement, tho. —>https://twitter.com/JessiTurnure/status/854185816956047362 …

30 minutes left on the death warrant.

Legally speaking, I think it must be asked what has to happen before the warrant expires. Does execution have to take place, begin, what?
-
And, whatever it must be, what does that term "take place," "begin," whatever it is, mean precisely?
-
Do the Arkansas officials, where an execution hasn't taken place since 2005, know what the confines of "will carry into effect" are?

Notably, the state won't answer:https://twitter.com/alanblinder/status/854191849799639040 …

15 minutes left for the state to "carry into effect" the execution, if stay is lifted.
