Willingham v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas · Decided March 17, 1997
327 Ark. 682; 939 S.W.2d 311; 1997 Ark. LEXIS 146

Willingham v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Appellant, O.C. Willingham, by his attorney, Charles L. Honey, has filed an amended motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to an error 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 per curiam order dated February 5, 1979. In re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964; Terry v. State, 272 Ark. 243, 613 S.W.2d 90 (1981).

A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
