Crutcher v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Crutcher v. State, 300 Ark. 29 (Ark. 1989)
775 S.W.2d 896
Crutcher v. State
Opinion of the Court
Petitioner, Howard Crutcher, by his attorney, Ronald L. Griggs, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney takes responsibility for the record being tendered after the ninety-day time limit for filing a 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 Terry v. State, 272 Ark. 243 (1981); In re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).
A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct. In re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964.
