Williams v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Williams v. State, 303 Ark. 481 (Ark. 1990)
797 S.W.2d 457; 1990 Ark. LEXIS 628
Williams v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant, Preston P. Williams, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk.
His attorney, Robert H. Smith, 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.
