Summers v. State
Summers v. State
298 Ark. 605; 771 S.W.2d 16; 1989 Ark. LEXIS 227
Summers v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant, Charles Summers, by his attorney, Lynn F. Plemmons, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to miscalculation of the ninety-day limit for filing the record in this Court. See Ark. R. App. P. 5(a).
We find that such error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See per curiam dated February 5, 1979, In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964; Terry v. State, 272 Ark. 243, 613 S.W.2d 90 (1981).
A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
