Hill v. State

Supreme Court of Arkansas
Hill v. State, 350 Ark. 3 (Ark. 2002)
83 S.W.3d 416; 2002 Ark. LEXIS 429

Hill v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Appellant Robert Stephen Hill, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion for rule on clerk. Attorney, James E. Hensley, 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.
