Martin v. State

Supreme Court of Arkansas
Martin v. State, 315 Ark. 493 (Ark. 1994)
868 S.W.2d 466; 1994 Ark. LEXIS 211

Martin v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Luther Martin, by his attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk.

His attorney, Jim Pedigo, admits in his motion 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 In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).

The motion is, therefore, granted. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
