Hale v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Hale v. State, 327 Ark. 540 (Ark. 1997)
938 S.W.2d 858; 1997 Ark. LEXIS 130
Hale v. State
Opinion of the Court
Sherry Marie Hale, by her attorney, has filed a motion for a rule on the clerk.
Her attorney, A. Wayne Davis, 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.
