Quick v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas · Decided January 18, 1994
315 Ark. 540; 868 S.W.2d 488; 1994 Ark. LEXIS 212

Quick v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam:

The appellant, Jimmy Don Quick, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk.

His attorney, Thurman Ragar, admits that the failure to file the record within the prescribed time was due to a mistake on his part.

We hold that such an error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See our Per Curiam 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.
