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

Per Curiam.

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.
