Arkansas Code Title 26. Taxation § 26-51-916. Failure to deduct and withhold--Liability

Every employer shall be liable for amounts required to be deducted and withheld by this subchapter regardless of whether or not the amounts were in fact deducted and withheld. However, if the employer fails to deduct and withhold the required amounts and if the tax against which the required amounts would have been credited is paid, the employer shall not be liable for those amounts not deducted and withheld if the failure was due to reasonable cause.
