Proceedings under the Uniform Insurer's Liquidation Act, Ark. Code Ann. § 23-68-101 et seq. are similar and analogous to bankruptcy proceedings; in bankruptcy proceedings, for example, the federal bankruptcy court retains jurisdiction over collateral matters of the bankruptcy pending appeals on piecemeal issues and orders dealing with the details of the bankruptcy.
