Ward v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Ward v. State, 286 Ark. 65 (Ark. 1985)
688 S.W.2d 951; 1985 Ark. LEXIS 2000
Ward v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant, Mark Ward, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk.
His attorney, Robert Sharp Gunter, 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.
