Arkansas Business reports here on the $14 million lawsuit by First Arkansas Bank and Trust of Jacksonville over delinquent loans to John Rogers, who built a big business on photographs and sports memorabilia but now seems to be foundering.

Arkansas Business notes that Rogers hasn’t been running the business for more than six months. Jacksonville businessman William “Mac” Hogan is now in charge day to day. AB also notes that Rogers’ wife, Angelica, has filed for divorce.
