Opinion of the Court
Petitioner, Dirk Johnson, by his attorney, Norman M. Smith, has filed a motion for belated appeal. His attorney admits that he failed to file the notice of appeal on time.
We find that such error, admittedly made by the attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See Terry v. State, 272 Ark. 243, 613 S.W.2d 90 (1981); In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 295 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).
A copy of this per curiam will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct. In Re: Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964.
