Allen v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Allen v. State, 303 Ark. 253 (Ark. 1990)
795 S.W.2d 58; 1990 Ark. LEXIS 418
Allen v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant, Augusta Allen, Jr., by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk.
His attorney, Henry J. Swift, 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.
