Tucker v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas · Decided October 30, 1997

Counsel

G. B. “Bing" Colvin, III, for appellant., No response.

Tucker v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Appellant, Dennis Cornell Tucker, by his attorney, G.B.“Bing” Colvin, III, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney admits that the transcript 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.
