Entergy Arkansas has withdrawn its lawsuit regarding documents inadvertently released by state regulators. The legal action stemmed from the publication of these documents by the Arkansas Democrat Gazette, which had obtained them through a public records request made by a central Arkansas woman. The documents in question revealed details concerning Entergy's agreements related to a Google data center in West Memphis.

Entergy Arkansas had sought a court order to prevent the further publication of these details. However, a federal judge denied this request earlier in the month.

Following the judge's decision, Entergy Arkansas proceeded to dismiss its lawsuit.
