Neighbors v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas · Decided March 18, 1991
305 Ark. 89; 804 S.W.2d 728; 1991 Ark. LEXIS 144

Neighbors v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Appellant, Earl Ray Neighbors, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk.

His attorney, J.F. Atkinson, Jr., 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.
