Gentry v. State

Supreme Court of Arkansas
Gentry v. State, 315 Ark. 281 (Ark. 1993)
864 S.W.2d 870; 1993 Ark. LEXIS 659

Gentry v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Appellant, Ralph Gentry, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk.

His attorney, C.P. Christian, admits that the failure to file the record in time was 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.
