Stephens v. State

291 Ark. 557; 725 S.W.2d 855; 1987 Ark. LEXIS 2005

Stephens v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Petitioner David Charles Stephens, by his attorney, has filed a second motion for a rule on the clerk. His attorney, Robert C. Marquette, has by affidavit admitted it was his fault that the record was not timely tendered.

We find that the error, admittedly made by the criminal defendant’s attorney, is good cause to grant the motion for a rule on the clerk.

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