Richard v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas · Decided September 10, 1998
334 Ark. 239; 973 S.W.2d 482; 1998 Ark. LEXIS 476

Richard v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Petitioner, Bobby Richard, by his attorney, John L. Kearney, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake 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 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.
