Harris v. State

Supreme Court of Arkansas
Harris v. State, 280 Ark. 244 (Ark. 1983)
656 S.W.2d 710; 1983 Ark. LEXIS 1489

Harris v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Appellants, Cullen Reed Harris and Sandra Kay Harris, by their attorney, James E. Davis, have filed a motion for rule on the clerk.

The motion admits that the record was not timely filed and it was no fault of the appellants. Their attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part.

We find that such an error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See our Per Curiam opinion dated February 5,1979, In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964.

A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
