Gulley v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas
Gulley v. State, 352 Ark. 38 (Ark. 2003)
98 S.W.3d 403; 2003 Ark. LEXIS 81
Gulley v. State
Opinion of the Court
Appellant Jason J. Gulley, by and through am. attorney, has filed a motion for belated appeal. Attorney, Ron Gillespie, states in the motion that the notice of appeal was filed 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.
