Roberts v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Roberts v. State, 350 Ark. 5 (Ark. 2002)
84 S.W.3d 43; 2002 Ark. LEXIS 426
Roberts v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellants Wesley L. Roberts and Penny Roberts, by and through their attorney, have filed a motion for rule on clerk. Attorney, Michael Loggains, 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.
