Valenzuela v. State
Supreme Court of Arkansas · Decided June 12, 2003 · Corbin
353 Ark. 653; 113 S.W.3d 80; 2003 Ark. LEXIS 333

Valenzuela v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Appellant Jose Valenzuela, by and through his attorney, Ralph J. Blagg, has filed a motion for rule on the clerk. Attorney Blagg 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.

Corbin, J., not participating.
