Opinion of the Court
The appellant, Douglas James Clayton,
has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney, Ralph M. Cloar, Jr., admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part. We find that such admission of fault by an attorney in a criminal case is good cause to grant the motion. See Tarry v. State, 288 Ark. 172, 702 S.W.2d 904 (1986).
The motion is therefore granted. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
