Duty v. State
318 Ark. 686; 886 S.W.2d 875; 1994 Ark. LEXIS 627
Duty v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant, James A. Duty, by his attorney, Robert C. Harder, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part.
We find that such error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See Terry v. State, 272 Ark. 243, 613 S.W.2d 90 (1981); In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).
A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct. In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964; Harkness v. State, 264 Ark. 561, 572 S.W.2d 835 (1978).
