Lewis v. State

Supreme Court of Arkansas
Lewis v. State, 342 Ark. 185 (Ark. 2000)
26 S.W.3d 585; 2000 Ark. LEXIS 619

Lewis v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Appellant, Robert Lewis, by his attorney, Sandra Cordi, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. His attorney admits that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on her 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, supra.
