345 Ark. 575; 48 S.W.3d 533; 2001 Ark. LEXIS 436
Simpson v. State
Opinion of the Court
Petitioner, Dominic Simpson, by his attorney Mark S. Fraiser, Chief Public Defender, Garland County Public Defender’s Office, 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, 265 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.
