Jones v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Jones v. State, 326 Ark. 397 (Ark. 1996)
929 S.W.2d 722; 1996 Ark. LEXIS 562
Jones v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant Michael Leonard Jones, by his attorney, has filed for a rule on the clerk. His attorney, Charles A. Potter, 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 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.
