Penson v. State
Penson v. State
343 Ark. 124; 31 S.W.3d 870; 2000 Ark. LEXIS 585
Penson v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant Quabina Rasheen Penson, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for rule on clerk. His attorney, S. Butler Bernard, Jr., states in the motion that the record was tendered late due to a mistake on his part.
We find that such an error, admittedly made by an attorney for a criminal defendant, is good cause to grant the motion. See In Re Belated Appeals in Criminal Cases, 265 Ark. 964 (1979) (per curiam).
The motion is, therefore, granted. A copy of this opinion will be forwarded to the Committee on Professional Conduct.
